    It sounds much better than SACD. Well done. Well done.

      Sounds pretty good. Depending on your system, you might want to bump up the treble. The bottom end is over-emphasized, in my opinion.

        Can anyone who owns this please confirm that this version is _not_ translucent and actually different from the new version recently posted here: https://discogs.sitiodesbloquea.com/Weezer-Weezer/release/16987791 ?

          I have a to agree with previous posters in saying that this is a really fun edition. Sure it may not be the best example of an audiophile recording but this issue is so punchy and layered!! Can’t imagine it sounding better.

            This sounds great, nice and clear, heavy duty gatefold as well

              Been chasing a MOFI of this for a while, and was happy see if still available on the MOFI site for under $40 shipped. Glad I didn't get the DMM from Walmart for $17 and "splurged" on this...

                Mine looks very solid until I shine a light through it and then it appears marbled. Are we sure there are two different colors that warrant two different release pages?

                  Typical MOFI low level with a bloated bottom end. The packaging and disc are gorgeous but I also felt a little let down with the sound on this one. Luckily it's going for $35.

                    Anyone know what the pressing quantity on this was?? Mine is numbered in the 7500s

                      Contrary to MichaelOC, I would say Krieg Wunderlich is pretty damn good... I have several of his remasters and they typically sound amazing. But I would also agree this pressing doesn't sound very good. It's nice that it's a colored MoFi release, a great collector's item at the very least, but the sound quality is inferior to the DMM version also released in 2016, for half the cost. I have both so no matter to me at this point but if it means being able to buy 2 records instead of this MoFi version, and the collector appeal doesn't mean much for you, then pick up a different copy. This is one of my worst-sounding MoFi releases. I also compared it to a digital version, which was just a hair below the DMM vinyl, and I mean it was splitting hairs. Alternating between the 3 in real-time, the MoFi just didn't have the brightness and clarity of the other two. A1 was MoFi, and the rest of side A was the DMM, with switchbacks to the digital version during both. Side B saw a return of the MoFi pressing, and it just didn't compare to the other 2. It had a muffled quality to it, and both people comparing the releases reached this same conclusion simultaneously.
