robotfactory Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Yeah it is. Amazon.ca had it for less than 299 at one point. I wouldn't trust them to ship this package though. looks like they come packed like tanks. i assume they are coming from the label this way and all amazon will have to do is slap a shipping label on it.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZRb9brLh6k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paintedinexile Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I got a copy almost all of these albums last week. Everything looks very nice and I assume they sound really good but I havent listened to any of them yet. So you will have all of these for sale online or in stores?

travis Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 So you will have all of these for sale online or in stores? Yea all the individual albums and the box set will be sold online. Most of the individual albums will be in select stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisakarcher Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'd rather hunt these down for cheap (sales and coupons and whatnot) then get the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those times I have to say "than," not then. Because I know what you're trying to say, but what you actually said was something totally different.

mcpherson123 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 This set looks amazing but at the end of the day still fuck the Beatles. This is still a collection of repressed vinyl LP's that were originally recorded analog then bounced to digital and sourced from that. This is still a set of albums that are all plentiful on vinyl (not brand new obviously but still). And finally this set still fucked up vinyl for more than 2 months.

paintedinexile Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I have a feeling this won't be the last time this happens. They had an article in the USA Today about this, and it said that they are half-way through transferring the band's mono recordings to vinyl.

withengineheart Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Picked up Revolver. This record has always eluded me.. never seem to find it reasonably priced or not scratched to shit. These remasters are phenomenal btw. They really did a great job. Packaging, not so much. Very simple and cheap, no insert, yadayada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

numanoid Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Yes you can find plenty of used Beatles. But there's no guarantee of source material, and the pressing quality is iffy, and they've usually been played by shitty equipment. Also, as the guy who worked on them at abbey road mentioned on the Hoffman forums, the original pressings were actually not accurate to the masters and were cut loud for radio play. It's the 60s version of the loudness wars. These are probably the most thought out and well produced versions of these albums. Don't get too hung up on them being bounced to hi res digital first. The mastering is the key here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
