      At the drop of the needle, Queen appears in the room. Solid recording. The band seems to be in the room with you.

        After listening this record on numerous systems I have to say that it sounds a bit dull and narrow to my ears. If you have bright components in your system, then it will sound balanced. But with linear or dark components it will be dull.
        I’ve compared this with US pressing. Latter really has more clarity in sonics - that’s why the sound is perceived more detailed and with wider soundstage.
        The packaging with thick cardboard is superb, as well as the quality of vinyl itself.

          Anyone finds this mastering a little weird? Is it just me or do others also hear the audio swinging from middle to right and back? For me I keep hearing the center of music move from middle to right and back in as span of a second or two. Anyone notices this too? For me it's very noticable... And it makes the experience really weird. This is really amplified on Somebody to love.
