    Sounds fantastic. They were onto something when they used the audiophile record. Took me a while to find my variation because at first I thought it was simply a normal black record, but upon close inspection, it is in fact translucent purple with help of a bright light on any opposite side. Again, sounds great and clear with deep bass.
