Item Description

In the early 1980s Nimbus produced a selection of hi-fidelity recordings from the original master tapes using the best available mastering processes.
In fact, Nimbus employed many techniques for each release that were not commonly used.
For example, generally when bass moves from channel to channel on an LP, groove modulation is employed to reduce the movement of the stylus and this results in this bass being centered more over both channels.
Most audiophiles would argue that this - and in fact anything, which changes the original recording should be avoided although this is common practice on most LPs and with Nimbus this resulted in outstanding sound quality.
Nimbus also had the ICI company produce an extremely pure vinyl for the LPs, which has amazing frequency reproduction and is virtually noise free - similar in quality to the super vinyl used on earlier Mofi pressings.
Due to their rarity and small pressing quantities, they are often more expensive than audiophile LPs from other labels, but the sums paid can be justified by the outstanding quality of the pressings and the fact that they tend to rise in value over time and as such are deemed as investments by some audiophiles This issue truly is something all Floyd and Vinyl collectors should have in their collection.The sound is a cut above the mass produced WYWH pressing which i am sure you ll agree is a classic The condition is accurately described as follows- Vinyl- EX Labels- NR Mint- Cover- VG / EX - The top of the sleeve was restuck but that does not harm to the quality of the sleeve There were less than 1000 of these produced in the day - not many seen on Ebay over the years Powered by eBay Turbo Lister
