About the Half Speed Mastering Process:
This record was cut using a specialist technique known as half-speed mastering. This is a process whereby the source for this record as well as the turntable on the disc cutting lathe are both run at half their normal operating speed, so that twice the time is spent cutting the intricate groove into the master disc.
This artisan approach results in cuts that have superior high frequency response (treble) and solid and stable stereo images.
In short, a very high quality master that helps to create a very high quality record.
