Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 How easy is this to get? Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thisket Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Fairly easy on ebay. A good copy pops up every so often. Be prepared to pay a lot. The sound quality is supposed to be fairly bad, though. Especially with the brown vinyl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 yah, i saw comments about the brown vinyl when googling around. that was where the 'is it worth it?' part came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Thisket Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Well, you can get all the tracks digitally (Stone in Focus on that Astralwerks CD). I got them all together and split them onto three CDs (like the vinyl), and broke out my exacto-blades, fancy paper, and binding glue to make it a stately, plain-faced pocket-binder. Get the vinyl if you have one of those laser-record-players (audioturntable.com, I believe). Then let me borrow it for a sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 i already have it on CD (legally!), and stone in focus in mp3, though i need to grab hankie at some point. Saw II is one of the few albums for which i've felt motived to investigate, er... higher fidelity listening experiences basically, records sound nice, and i so i said to myself, perhaps i should get this on vinyl...

Guest WanMonei Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 But the question is... How much??? I saw the Vinyl like arround $120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 yeah, see, i admittedly am not a vinyl connisseur... i own literally like four or five records, but a lot more CDs, and some cassettes. i do have access to a turntable, and vinyl records do seem to fill a room more, and if there's ever an album i want to do that, it's this one. i would pay a decent amount for a copy of SAW II on vinyl IF: a) it sounds good enough to be worth having over the CD B) i can actually play it (e.g. it's not so valuable it should sit on a shelf etc.) c) it's not a pain in the ass to find. just because you have the will doesn't mean the way is obvious at the moment i think i'm just sticking with my CDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marf Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Ive heard it on vinyl and its better. All vinyl is better to me though. Check out this old moog demo from a vinyl http://fractaldvd.com/media/moogrecord.html I would love to know how to get that sound from a record. I love it. Id master everything to record firt if I knew it would sound like that. Maybe tape is fine for that. ( I don't think these vinyl emulator plug ins do the trick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 The standard colour cover black vinyl will run you 90-120USD. The black and white cover with black vinyl is a bit rarer but will run you about the same. The brown vinyl (limited to 10,000) varies by the release number - anything below 1000 is worth significantly more than 1001 and up. get into the less than 100 territory and you're gonna pay at least 200USD. The audio on the brown vinyl is horrible, so don't buy this version if you want to actually listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 okay. i'm changing my position to 'keeping a vague watch on ebay for a black vinyl, color cover copy' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK-DUDE Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I've just picked up a copy of the black vinyl, color cover version for (£36) off ebay. I've not played it yet, a bit too scared to wear the vinyl. To be honest I've not even heard SAW II yet ever, so I'm looking forward to playing it soon. All the best.

YEK Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 i thought about owning sawII on vinyl but i kinda think it would be a bad idea because you'd have to keep on flipping over the vinyl; i like to listen to sawII when i'm just about to drift into dream land Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 i think i'd have to construct some sort of canine/record adapter, probably involving springs and padded salad tongs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
