Genial,

[@welderfixer]

This recording has to be fantastic. Now where do I go to listen to it in its full glory? I'm sure my sorry rig isn't up to the task.

[@mikep8683]

Go take a tour of McIntosh Labs. That is where the full glory will be.

[@welderfixer]

@@mikep8683 Thanks. The plant is only an hour away from me. I'd like to go the NYC and tour the McIntosh House of Sound.

Curious to know that which master tape session used for cutting vinyl between direct mixed down 2 tracks 30 ips or 24 tracks 2 inches tape (mixed down later to 2 tracks)?

[@radtour]

Sounds great. Where can we get the records?

[@chuckhinton3994]

The Mc website

[@MikeFromAudioExcellence]

Directly from McIntosh or from an authorized dealer

Strange to see this drop for $150. That’s one-step price levels, which I don’t recall this being. A while back, Marantz released a similar project titled “Explorations of Sound” which had two volumes. You can purchase the set for under $100 and these were also mastered by RKS at Sterling Sound. What would have been really interesting is for McIntosh to team up with the Electric Recording Co to create a truly premium product. I’ll be picking g this up, but I can’t help that it’s way over priced, which scares me as this is labeled as a 1st release of a series.

Why ERC? they do re-masters of 50's & 60's LP's, recording tech, even analog, has come a long way in 70's years, a well done new recording like this one will be notably higher fidelity.

[@VinylLatte]

@@chuckHinton Hi there! ERC does more than albums from the 50s and 60s, but I get what you’re saying. My thinking is that ERC specializes in AAA, with no EQ or compression. It would be nice to see two companies that are at the best of the craft collaborating on something together. This just doesn’t seem special enough to justify the price point, but I’m one of the people that will buy it anyway 😉

[@OCDmikey]

How can we tell it's Mcintosh after all the EQ and outboard gear that is used to master it for Vinyl ?

[@tiborkocsis5819]

I don't really got the concept. What is the reason to get the same tracks on 33 and 45? Why not a one 33 rpm issue and a double 45 rpm issue? Mixing one 33 rpm record and some of the very same tracks on 45 doesn't make any sense to me.

[@MatadorBW]

It’s only half the songs in 45rpm. They call it an EP. I agree it doesn’t make a lot of sense.

[@omgwtfpwnd]

It’s a crime not to release this on CD or any other lossless digital format.

[@doctersound9630]

Macintosh? Don’t you “all” mean McIntosh? Or is everyone else wrong? There is no “a” in McIntosh… #justsaying
