Yes, the clarity is amazing. As if cotton was taken out of my ears. It's a real treat.

I was very surprised by the difference compared to the stereo remasters. Thought it might be hype, but there's good stuff here.

I could talk about this set all day.  From the "honest" sound, to what looks to be exact replica mini-LP sleeves (I never owned original Parlophone LPs), this is a treasure.

The MONO Box Set is one of my "prized possessions."  ;)

Thanks for the heads-up about MMT Kelley.  At $40.00, I couldn't resist!

I paid $85 for it when I pre-ordered last Fall.  You'll enjoy the tour, George!

Good for you! I'm gonna order it too, just as soon as I convert my birthday money to an Amazon card. I've been to town twice now and I've forgotten to take it with me.  roll:)

It's one of those "so bad it's good" films.  It's so incredibly stupid, all I did the first time I saw it was laugh and enjoy it.

I'm looking forward to playing the EPs and hearing Walrus in mono on vinyl.

I can't wait to get those too. It will be the first new vinyl I've had for many years. Now the price is down to $36.99!

$4 cheaper than when I ordered it on Thursday.   Maybe it will keep coming down.

It's still holding steady but it was even lower a week ago, then went back up to 40.00. I wonder why that is. Maybe they keep switching suppliers.

Hard to say, maybe it's based on sales.  I bought the mono CD set in January 2012 for $140.00.  Now it's $200.00.  It was as high as $220.00 I think a couple months ago.

I got it for 130.00 one month later! LOL From the looks of things I'm very glad I did. But it's worth every penny.

Absolutely.  It's priceless.

The bus will be proceeding on to western New York after it's done in Texas.  :) Of course when I ordered it they told me about this:



I can hardly wait!

Wow,  I forgot that I pre-oreded that!

I haven't watched the MMT Bluray yet, but I did listen to the EP.  The pressings are quiet, and the mono sound is nice.
