“Original master recording” means exactly what is says. They made their own original master of the tape.

I love my UHQR. Looked forever for the best vinyl version of Kinda Blue. This is

Good video man and good vinyls 🎶🥳👏

Thank you for a good comparing video.

Great, and honest review!

I've got both the Mofi SACD the dvd audio which is in 5.1. I have a surround AVR and I love listening in surround.

Chad mentioned on a livestream that KOB UHQR 45RPM is the next to come out. Since Sony said no more playing their tape, guessing there wouldn't be any more all-analog reissues anytime soon. But hey, we have all those historical releases already.

One thing to consider, if it hasn’t already been mentioned, is that these three versions are more than likely one of two remixes that Mark Wilder did directly from the original three track multis. The Legacy addition is probably the newest remix. Really don’t know about the MOFI in light of everything that has gone on. But I am assuming it also is a remix and pulled from a DSD file. The AP I am assuming it’s also the remix, but off of the analogue master that Mark Wilder created (he had mixed to

Seems like the takeaway is a slight difference overall between the UHQR and Mofi versions. So kind of like 6 of one and half a dozen of the other. 🤷‍♀

The original pressing is absolutely the best. Miles Davis played so much better on that one.

[@EricIzabelle]

Are they using the same version of Side 1 with the corrected speed (-3%)?

[@notmanatee2445]

I have seen the DOL version that has the same artwork as the legacy cover but bolder letters,and the waxtime is a completely different record art cover,i saw it at half price books,and on discogs its a bootleg and is banned yet half price books still sells them. I have seen the not now music version of kind of blue and it looks identical,and its a different font,and is in mono,and it is worse than an mp3 download of it. You are not alone,i have seen grey market bootleg records,and other people do a comparison with that album and others,I do the same thing you did in this video,and I enjoy the hobby of playing records like you do.

I have the $25 copy and there's some distortion present for sure. Is it present on the super duper deluxe versions as well?

Miles and miles of Miles!

[@Chadturner21]

I don’t think the banners ruin the covers personally, it’s a neat thing specially for their company. In all honesty it’s still sourced from the original master tape, just has a digital step, I think it sounds phenomenal, I’m not too picky about analog or digital, so many people seem to be wanting to burn mofi at the stake for this

[@MichaelM-to4sg]

UHQR 45 version is the best vinyl pressing. The best, by not a small margin, is the r2r 1:1 master from Hemiolia released recently. Dead black background, wide & deep soundstage and a really smooth presentation.

The manual is like when a winemaker tells you in detail how his wine was made…..you feel like you have to like it…I dont want to know anything about a wine until I tried it and I found out if I like it. Blind test.

[@leonardoiglesias2394]

This RECORDING is marvelous. You cant destroy it. The room, the reverb, the sound if the instruments is IN THE RECORDING. Listen also to prestige Miles Davis Quintet with Coltrane recordings, you will see what I mean….

On “So What”, I believe the moisture inside the horn or the reed is coursing the distortion, on “Blue On Green”, I heard issues on the AP version, I have 5 copies from them, all have issues at different places on the song. The MoFi copy, perhaps due to it being 45RPM, wider grooves, does not distort.
