Original issue vs reissue vinyl.

Purchased a new copy of cosmos factory lately. I d like to know your thoughts about original vs reissue in terms of sound quality. Although i do prefer to get the best master so if there is a reissue with fairly better mastering i ll get that or vice versa. If the original is more than that then i will look at the reissue.

Found an old record that looks and feels new. A looser term reissue applies to a wider variety of releases. For me this edition at 180 grams is pretty good maybe better than the original but the problem of this. I prefer original up until about 25.

Reissues is a recurrent topic among vinyl junkies. Different albums so the comparison isn t direct but you get the idea. Speak spell sony music legacy 2016 180gram vinyl vs original mute records stumm5 1981. Depends on the genre and release year and stuff like that too.

This is a comparison between a 2008 remastered issue of ride the lightning and a 1986 original issue of master of puppets. You will need to match the catalog number year of release exact artwork colors and liner notes if available. I m new into vinyl and i m not sure if it s worth spending much more money in original pressings rather than buying an 180g reissue. A quality reissue can offer a great alternative to owning a scratchy original or spending big money on something scarce.

I ve heard that most of these reissues are copied directly from a digital recording or a cd and the sound quality is not the best.
