How can you tell the difference between the normal vinyl and the nonrecycled audiophile version.. without opening the seal on the packaging? Do they have different Cat No's, or stickers on them.. or what? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Weight? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the audiophile is numbered 1 - 1000. The vinyl is heavier and it comes in a huge box with big ass artwork and lovely sleeves for the vinyl. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought the normal version comes in the big box too? Or maybe I've only seen the limited ed version, which is a nice situation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's an X somewhere on the cat number. |
||||||||
|
|

I own ltd. edition - the difference is not in weight. It is in the place where it was pressed. ltd was pressed in LA, normal edition was pressed in UK an yes it has an "x" in the category number (WARPLP92X) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

ONLY on the vinyl it says WARP LP092X. On the outer packaging the catalog # is for the regular version (i.e. they didn't print a new box for the audiophile version) The cardboard fold that holds the records in the box has an aphex logo die-cut out of it. I have both the regular and heavyweight vinyl versions, this is the only other difference I can see. |

i thought the 'x' meant it had xtra tracks... |
||||||||
|
|

Oh and the audiophile IS heavier (180g) than the regular (150g). They were pressed at RTI in Camarillo, CA |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes and they are LOVELY |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, I did not know thay are heavier, I only thought the difference is the place of pressing. Good to know :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Aha, so the boxes are the same? Hmmm that's what i thought. This one I'm investigating is still sealed, I want to tell the differnce without breaking the seal. It has a little black round sticker with a white aphex logo stuck to the it.. dunno if that means anything.. (?) |
||||||||

Open that box up mate! It sounds almost exactly the same either way, and you can play the 45s at 33rpm sounds so fantastic... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah look on the little black round sticker (that says DRUKQS in like, keyboard keys with little shit on them) and it should have a four digit number like 0 0 0 5 that should tlel you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have both and the 'regular' version has a wee aphex sticker on the shrinkwrap the audiophile is numbered like elusive said. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Shit. They both have little aphex logostickers on, but the audiophile one has a white border on it, and it has a silver with "Premium vinyl pressing HQ-180" written on it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you have too much money or too little brains. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you have two little moneys, only one little brain. Buy another. A better one! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks all who helped, it has only the one little aphex A sticker, no mention of hq-180 or number x/1000, so it must be the normal version. Coming soon, many ridiculous JoyrexJ9 questions :) |

i found this at disney world two months ago. i was happy. limited edition. nice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the sticker was on the shrinkwrap, not the box itself. although it was easy to pull it off the shrinkwrap and stick it on the box :) copy 0005/1000 |
