I transferred my vinyl onto CD-R through an Event Gina card, cleaned it up in DART Pro and burned it onto CD-R. Sounds about as good as the original, which isn't saying much, as the original isn't the best-sounding 12" I've ever heard. Unfortunately, I noticed a small skip in my transfer, which means I will have to redo it. It's barely noticeable (I didn't catch it until after a few listens), and I can't redo it, as one of my shelves collapsed taking my vinyl transfer setup (Thorens deck and mixer) out of comission... My MP3s of Twoism aren't the hottest, but don't sound all _that_ bad either - I can't remember where I got'em, but I'm sure they're the ones in circulations, probably the ones on BleepBloop... they're certainly better than those awful copies of AB5 that were floating around (I got vinyl xfers and they sound _so_ much better). Honestly, I don't think that the original Twoism 12" is the paragon of sound quality anyways... :) And while I was ready to drop the $120 it was going at for a while, $325 is nuts... obviously auctions reflect what the market will bear and all, it's just that... when I was going to school, that's like $50 shy of two months' worth of rent! >you could buy something genuinely rare like kohoutek-kometenmelodie for that >price! i mean, it's nice and that, but.. Yep... ah well. It's rarer'n your grandma, so I suppose it carries the price tag. ...piotr dubiel
