vinny0190 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I'm curious about sound quality as well, Amazon had delayed Toxicity delivery until the end of this month so I won't get to hear it for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecrets0308 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Mine are out for delivery right now and assuming they show up between now and my lunch at 1:30 ET, i'm going to spin one on my lunch and will report back with sq feedback.

Ranch Cat Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I was going to order from Target but looks like they have all been taken off the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially compared to the pic discs and boots of some of these Spun the ST last night, sounded miles above my black bootleg I'd gotten a few years ago.

thesecrets0308 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I too am listening to the debut album right now and it's great! quiet noise floor, flat as a pancake, and it's on point as far as the sound quality. I don't have the S/T boot but i do have the Toxicity boot, so i can't speak to how much better it is than the boot, but i have to imagine it's better for sure. Very happy so far, nice insert too.

pizza face Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Just saw toxicity and hypnotize in a store and the back of toxicity was pretty clear while the front looked terrible. I can live with it. My order from deepdiscount should be here by Tuesday. If I'm lucky it'll be here tomortow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V3XED Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Its crazy that crappy cover reproductions happen. Like you know a copy of this was put on someones desk and got the "ok go ahead!" to print who knows how many thousands of jackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achillesstand7 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I’ve only listened to Toxicity so far, but it sounds great. Very happy to have a nice sounding pressing of these. Very clear, full sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 32 minutes ago, ZeroNowhere said: It's likely due to these albums coming out when they were pressed on CD only. The artwork was created for that format size, so now when it's blown up it looks like shit. That's what I'm going with. I guess they figure people will still buy it, so who cares? It would have been awesome had they redone the artwork so it didn't look terrible, but that's time and money that I'm sure they (whoever they are) didn't want to spend. The really sucky thing about that logic is that it gives me the impression that it is highly likely that these lacquers were cut from CD playback into the cutting system which is technically a total ripoff. But if everybody says it sounds good, that's good enough for me. Will likely grab a S/T sometime this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsNJazz Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Got mine in just now, I was thinking the artwork was going to be extremely pixelated and they're just a little blurry, Hypnotize isn't blurry at all compared to the others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFC1549 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Does the blurry covers effect the way it sounds?? (Asking for a friend) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sound really good so I'm not complaining, but still... haha honestly just really happy to have these. The nostalgia is hitting me hard as I'm listening to Mezmerize right now. I think I'm gonna wear my 'vintage' SOAD mushroom shirt tomorrow to feel even more like I'm living in 2005 Reshiram 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
