Yes, they seem a little uncomfortable, but I give them credit for - at least what seems to be - striving to be transparent.
Couldn’t stomach all the bloviation and prevarication in the videos.
What’s the short answer?
Mother MoFi knows best. and best might be a digital step here and there.
MoFi One Steps are fine sounding pressings. possibly the best possible way to hear these titles if you need new pressings. but maybe not worth the $100-$125 premium. and good original pressings, or earlier used all analog reissues might be better choices.
you simply can't bank on the One Steps....it's complicated. we all like to know that when we step up, we get what we are paying for. and the fact that many/most of them have been mastered to digital for lacquers might mess with your head.
and....great digital transfers, dsd or PCM, might be good/great alternatives.
