nyhi Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 So what have you guys been doing with that extra paper track list on the back? My OCDness doesn't know what the heck to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donttchange Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 It doesnt fit inside the box? I left the tracklists for siamese dream and gish in the poly sleev theyre in, didnt even think about this box. Ill probably just leave the shrink on, slit it down the side.

dedlee Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I just stashed mine in a drawer. I was thinking about leaving the shrink on but the box looks way too nice for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamoney Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I just keep a box where I can put any extra items a record comes with. It's full of booklets, mostly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 ok so you know where the paper already has a fold in it? i just made a slightly bigger fold, like half an inch and then the whole thing slips right down into the box. whew.

crapforgenius Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I've gotten packages from DHL before. They definitely use boxes. As does Amazon. Usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwgncpr Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Got mine today from amazon.ca (via DHL). Was in a large box that wasn't padded all that great, but fortunately the set wasn't banged up too bad. Listened to 3 of the 4 LPs so far. Overall the set sounds great, but Zero is definitely noticeably poorer. The grooves do indeed go very close to the label (~1/4"). Zero isn't a total deal breaker though, and I'm glad I got the set for what I did. As for the paper tracklist on the back, I trimmed less than 1/8" off the top and slid it into the box for safe keeping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Got a pending charge and shipping soon almost a full week after updating my declined card info, happy happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobohunter48 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Got mine today and it's beautiful and sounds great. I can kind of see what people were saying about Zero but it only was minimal on my copy and still totally listenable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markok Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Already discussed, but Im confused - is the amazon.com version the EU pressing or not? edit: ok, read again, seems like amazon.com has the EU version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can kind of see what people were saying about Zero but it only was minimal on my copy and still totally listenable. Out of curiosity did you get the .ca version or the .com version? I am not going to be as delicate with this as some of you. I'm going to be tearing the shrink wrap off on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobohunter48 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I got the .ca version, and I went with the slit down the side instead of taking it all off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidamnesiac Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 In other news: someone on the Steve Hoffman forums said cartridge misalignment could be the result of the Zero problems for some people. While it's true the grooves go dangerously close to the label, it should track better with a properly aligned cartridge. Something to try, at least, for people having the issue. I know I, for one, haven't aligned my cartridge since I installed it in 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rotatethissonicboo Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This is one of the best sounding vinyl I have in my collection. Everything sounds so clean yet so heavy and deep. I am so happy with this. Damn shame some can't enjoy this. youspinmeround 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Mine showed up today. Unfortunately I had to run off to work before I could even open the DHL box. I'll check it out later and report back about the quality of "Zero". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
