A fine collection of songs. The 4 records play like a dream with no noise or pops. Nice box too. Highly recommended if you’re still on the fence

Got this box today,ordered new fm HMV website.all discs play superbly all clean and all flat.excellent info in the sleeve notes book.All ID’s as listed.to get this new after 6 or 7 years,a lot of these boxes must have been pressed! 😃
-
Edited 7 years agoDoes anyone's copy skip like crazy? The record is very clean but none of my discs will play through without skipping every 30 seconds or so :/
EDIT - After my stylus ran it's life and I bought a new one, the problem was fixed. I suspect this pressing is very sensitive and if not 100% properly aligned it will not play. I suggest those of you still having issues should try altering your needle/arm configuration slightly and it will solve the problem. -
