Nothing need be said about Van Halen that hasn’t already been said somewhere else (and much better than I). But when you refer to Van Halen, it’s hard to not get past the brilliance of their first six albums. So, when you bring Van Halen to the doorsteps of Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, it’s a sure bet that the albums will receive some mind-melting luxuriance in sound and reproduction.
With dates to be determined, MoFi has announced superior sound for the first six Van Halen albums in two formats. One is SACD. The other vinyl LP.
Watch for the classic debut on through 1984 to be ready for your enjoyment. The SACDs will be offered as Hybrid. The LPs will be delivered cut at 45RPM and pressed on 180g-weight black vinyl. The Limited Edition vinyl 2LP boxsets will be pricey at $125 each, while the SACDs will be priced quite affordably at $29.99. All sets are numbered.
Here is your pre-order link for both sets.
