...and now listened to the second.

Have to say the Shure sounds to me more authentic to how I would expect a 60s mono 45 of this to sound. The other isn't necessarily worse/bad just different...

What cartridge and stylus did you use on your rip of SMO 2051/52? I assume the rest of the lineage would be the same...? I can't listen as missed the download window so can I request a re-up please.

Thanks,

Ian.
