Bruno Mars – XXIVK Magic

Record was laboratory clean out of the sleeve. Flawless throughout. Exceptional depth/dynamics and impressive clarity. Top tier quality in every way.

Really great sounding pressing, very little surface noise on my copy! It sounds just as dynamic as it should for how amazing the production on this album is. This gold pressing is the perfect color for the album.

This pressing is excellent. It’s dead quiet from start to finish and very dynamic and balanced. The packaging includes an antistatic inner sleeve, which is a good sign that they cared about sound quality. One thing I’ve noticed is that the gatefold is unnecessarily thick, especially for a 1LP album. Aside from that, this is definitely one of the best-sounding records in my collection.

As others have said... what an amazing pressing. Picked it up used at a record fair. Flawless sound, no noise, clear and concise highs, solid mids, deep bass. perfectly flat. 5/5.

Great recording, everything jumps out like a great 80s pressing. Good album.

Mine has constant pop and surface noise on both side...
Might need to take it for a ultrasonic cleaning to see if it help..

How is the sound quality on this pressing? Anyone that has compared it to the 2016 standard black pressing? I have the 2016 version and it sounds amazing, but I'm a sucker for these splatter vinyls so I'm tempted to get this one too, but maybe not if it's a lot worse than the one I have, quality wise.

I suppose that every year we'll get color-variation reissues of Mars' relatively small catalog until he feels the inspiration/impetus to put out new material.

Fantastic pressing. Picked this up at one of my local record stores. It was used but in really nice shape; practically a brand new record.

record sounds fantastic. no audible pops or anything of the sort. slick ass album as well
