Rush – 2112

brilliant sound scape and excellent pressing but with a subtle touch of compression that could be noticeable if you pay enough attention. Very strong dynamics, louds are loud & quiets are dead quiet. good pressing & packaging is quite good, if a touch flimsy

This pressing and mastering is awesome, crisp and clean, bass really stands out! Five Stars for this masterpiece Rush album! If anyone knows the actual release date I would love to know. Thanks!

This is THE pressing to get. One of the best sounding records in my collection.

2nd attempt at doing a deluxe 2112 within a 5 year period and still it's rubbish. The video component was already released on the R40 set and the audio isn't very interesting at all. Who want's to hear inferior musicians covering Rush?

Stop selling the 180gr here scamming buyers into thinking they're getting the 200gr!!!

Last weekend I received 2112 B0022371-01 that I ordered online. Typically, whenever I purchase new albums, I record them to my HTPC with Audacity software. The next time I want to hear the album in full, I just play it on my HTPC to save the vinyl.

Since I had a few new albums to copy on Saturday night, I was a couple of beers in when I got to 2112. Side B finishes, and before I could get to the TT to keep the needle from the run-out burp, I hear a fairly audible 'pop' sound. I lifted the needle and turned off the TT and grabbed a terry towel to clean the end of the album. I put the needle back on at the end, and wouldn't you know it, I overshot the last note and FLUB FLUB FLUB my needle shoots across the ultra wide run-out. I turned and told my wife that the album was hosed and it's going back. When I turned the TT light on, I took a hard look at it, and that's when I saw the zig-zag etching and the hologram in the run-out. WTH!

I have never seen or heard of this before, and I'm no spring chicken. I knew I had recorded the entire episode, so I replayed my accidental run-out mistake and thought oh no, I probably killed the needle. I grabbed an older album, and fortunately could not discern any damage to the needle, so I'm thinking I dodged the proverbial bullet. My main problem with the entire thing is, nowhere on the album description when I purchased it, nowhere on the album shrink wrap/stickers, and nowhere on the album cover, did the words "etched", "hologram" or "warning" appear. That's why I'm posting it here.

As for the album, I thought everything sounded clear and crisp, except for Neil's drums. I thought they lacked oomph and stage presence in a lot of his rolls. Since I only heard the album 1 time so far.. I'm not sure how it will sound the next time, or on the HTPC. I'm keeping the album though, I already have one helluva memory with it.

Any JAMF pressing is about the best there is for this album...

Help. My matrix match but Label is Og cant find any other release with same.

Great sound quality. Worth picking up for any Rush fan!

This is my second pressing from GZ Media and it sounds absolutely perfect. My other album is the 2011 pressing of The Who's Quadrophenia and it is phenomenal as well. I would not hesitate to buy another GZ Media pressing.
