If you’re not familiar with Quiex Virgin Vinyl Audiophile lps, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980s, record companies started pressing Quiex lps primarily for radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as Quiex that were shipped to radio. But if too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent brown Audiophile beauty IS one of those pressings.
