    No issues with my pressing, surprised to get this version from amazon. Sounds wonderful

      Is this pressing available with 1st pressning matrixes, and is it 180g?

        Took me a few minutes to realise which copy I have, but it’s definitely this repress. However, the quality is outstanding on my SL1200. Super crisp. You can hear every instrument. Chris’s voice is so clear. This was one of the albums I owned when I first started driving - brings back many memories.

          I own this pressing and a 2000 1st pressing - and I can say that they sound exactly the same to me. Although I am unable to do a direct side by side comparison, this is my favourite album of all time and I know it intimately, so I can say safely that the two pressings are identical in sound to my ears. The weight of this pressing in the hand is slightly heavier than the 1st pressing- but there isn't a lot to separate the two.

          I have to it the sound is absolutely fantastic - and I had heard previously that when Parachutes was pressed to vinyl originally it was a direct tape transfer from the original master tapes. I am unsure if this pressing is the same, but my guess is that it is pressed the same, as it sounds identical and really pure to me. The detail and clarity sounds the same on both pressing.

            Wow, this sounds incredible from a pressing perspective as the soundstage is very distinct and great spacing. Also no detectable surface noise.

              Very good pressing of an album that deserves it. Comes to life in a dreamlike and cozy fashion.

                I'm not sure about this repress or how it was followed through or who by but I spoke to ken nelson (producer) about the initial 2000 release; so you purists know, tracks: A1 to B2, B4 to B6 on the 2000 release were direct-from-tape transfers, not transferred digitally, not messed with, not remastered, not subject to awfull digital filters or pre ringing. A1 to B2, B4 to B6 on the 2000 release are the best possible window to the studio recordings that are available (unless one owns the master tape). How these tracks were handled is especially rare for a millennium release.

                  Maybe I really hate the Capitol editions but this really is an improvement from earlier versions.
