    Measurement in my Room Sonic Tools/iPhone App -
    Dynamic Range avg. is 12.6db
    Price was 27,99€ new ovp

    Ich habe mir diese Version zusätzlich zum 2024er Mix gekauft, nach dem Vergleich geht die 2024er Version zurück, diese klingt analoger näher am Original und bietet 0.9 db mehr Dynamik.

    Der 2024er Mix bietet dafür mehr Details, Räumlichkeit, Hall und klingt digitaler.

    Letztendlich Geschmacksache. Für mich ist der Bob Ludwig Mix die bessere Wahl.

      So interesting to hear the debut album from the best band in the world

        Excellent flat and silent pressing, great sound quality, good dynamics and above all pronounced and powerful bass.
        This 2015 Bob Ludwig half speed mastered reissue is definitely worth it, it is wonderful for my ears.
        I already want to throw away my Queen records from Hollywood Records

          In its own right the debut is excellent. It’s the sound of a raw talented band that would go in to greatness. This pressing is rich and warm.

            Very and very good release! Dead silence in the pauses. Silent mass. Decent sound.

              Great release over all. I compared this with my "Collector's edition" from 2009 and this one is a kick-ass. Too bad this album, the first one released by Queen, is not much cherished or cared of. It's an excellent album which showcases a raw Queen.
