Original vs reissue vinyl.
I d like to know your thoughts about original vs reissue in terms of sound quality.
Normally a reissue shows variances from the original including the sourcing of masters country of origin packaging and even format.

Original or re issues which sounds better.
If the original is more than that then i will look at the reissue.
I have a good number of originals but many i missed are being reissued on vinyl mainly progressive rock where the originals can cost from 100 500 gpb on auction sites.
A looser term reissue applies to a wider variety of releases.
Although i do prefer to get the best master so if there is a reissue with fairly better mastering i ll get that or vice versa.
When buying vinyl records do you always try and obtain the original early pressings or go for newly minted reissues.
I m new into vinyl and i m not sure if it s worth spending much more money in original pressings rather than buying an 180g reissue.
I had so much fun the first time i decided to do 2 back to back episodes.
Reissues is a recurrent topic among vinyl junkies.
That said many factors help determine whether you ve purchased a good or bad pressing of a record.
Depends on the genre and release year and stuff like that too.
I ve heard that most of these reissues are copied directly from a digital recording or a cd and the sound quality is not the best.
But the 25 rule holds pretty steady.
I prefer original up until about 25.
