I got a new turntable 3 days after this album came in. (upgraded my old Essential Phono/USB to a Debut Carbon EVO and it is SICK.) as I had already listened to this twice on the old one it made an obvious comparison record and man it sounded so damn good. and it already sounded good on the old table. big upgrade tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just put on an Audio Technica VMN40ML and it sounds so good. It’s more focused and drums are sounding really good. Improved sound stage as well.

NewOldStock Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I completely missed this. Is there anywhere still stocking it? A search suggests unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) So they had a problem with some black copies getting into the orange. It’s possible they pulled the inventory until it’s sorted. Edited April 8, 2021 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I’m going to spin this at the office on the following: Mofi Ultradeck Cary Audio SLI-80 Klipsch Forte IVs Will report back. Very curious how this is going to sound on a $10k set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaredisburning Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 So I got two copies with Black A records, and Orange B records. The email I got from Warners says that I do not need to return the black records in order for them to send me orange records to fix their mistake. Does anyone have an extra Black B record that they want to trade for one of my A records? Maybe someone that had the same thing happen to them?

Sad Heart Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Welp. I’m buying those Klipsch Forte IVs. Holy shit. I’ve never heard such accurate low ends and amazing sound stage. Thankfully I can get a killer discount on them. Cause once you hear them, there’s no going back. Insomniac sounded fantastic on the set up. I really felt every kick drum, and Mike’s bass tones really shined. faaip de oiad, tape and firehazardrecords 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I failed in being specific about an orange press. hmm, I think the GD email to people that got a mixed batch said something about there being more oranges on the way soon? but idk if they just made enough to send out replacements to the folks that got black or if they're doing another full run... but if they are doing more oranges, it'll probably only be on the Green Day webstore. If you're willing to settle for black though, I know someone on the GD message boards said they're selling this reissue at walmart now... so it seems to be widely available haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndigoHollow Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Just got email from the official GD website that my colored Insomniac will be shipped in December lol Sjchecchia, faaip de oiad, firehazardrecords and 2 others 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No tracking from International Webstore, but it was indeed orange vinyl. nickj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
