    Received corrected vinyls for Part 1 this week. Definitely hit up the label for replacements if you have a press of Part 1 that is bad.

      What a great collection item! Unlike others here, my vinyls are flat and have no major audible flaws. The production quality of the records is A+ and all the goodies are very much appreciated. The 40 page comic book is also a really cool addition. The box is definitely one of my top items in my collection.

        Want a strange collector item ( the one not signed- or one of the rarest of the rare- so the cover of the box is clear no signed), like a promo item, but no promo item mine is numbered.

          All four records completely flat without any unusual pops or cracks. An excellent release.

            Very nice boxset. Artwork is excellent and the extras are very cool.
            The vinyl of migrator 1 is however a miss. Record 1 is warped and sides 1-4 all have a rythmic noise in the right channel. Really annoying. The problem persists after cleaning on my Humminguru. Migrator 2 does not have this issue.
            Asked for a replacement. Hopefully that will resolve the issue.

            Sonics are very nice though. Soundstage is wide, not so deep however. The center image is a bit diffuse and not precisely locked. Siblance is not present.
            The vinyl itself is nice and quiet, really impressive for a colour variant.
