There are companies that put out records that are just as good or better and charge less.

Especially in the last few years, MOFI focused on their One Step series which is MSRP at $125 a pop. You get one album and a worthless box of dead air. They don't even include the original jacket art inside and then they lie about the source used to make the record.
I have few of Abbey Road Studios half speed cutting records and to me they have been better quality, especially the vinyl record itself and better value.

I agree with you both about judging records on how the music sounds. The benefit of half-speed remastering was well promoted and l believe it would raise SQ assuming the playback gear is ready. I never believed Mofi had all those master tapes which 'one step' required but they implied that they did... In the cd world I remember the fuss over 24 bit remasters but many had limited dynamic range.

Open mind and ears whilst owning GSP Genera, Accession M, Accession MC, Elevator EXP, Solo ULDE, Proprius amps, Cusat50 cables, Lautus digital cable, Spatia cables and links, and a Majestic DAC.
