    is there anything on this box set that hasn't been released on the deluxe reissues?

      No issues here with the picture discs. My copies all sound great. Even using an ortofon black there are no issues to be detected. Great overall package !

        Hiding bonus material like b-side collections and live sets behind an expensive paywall... nice. Would have made more sense to do a CD only format too so as to give those who don't really do vinyl (or can't afford it) a chance to enjoy this set.

          The sound on these picture discs is terrible. I am glad I went with the 2LP black version as they sound great.

            Just got around testing I Should Coco pic disk against the 20th Anniversary reissue. I'm afraid to say that the difference is indeed noticeable, the noise floor is through the roof (pun intended) and there's a layer of static noise all over the record. These were thoroughly vacuum cleaned as well, but that didn't help. The extra content is fantastic, but the decision to go with picture disks is questionable, to say the least. Worth mentioning that I'm using an AT440MLb and a pair of Grado SR325e, your mileage with different gear/setup may indeed vary.

              I am super picky about the quality of sound coming through my system, but these really don't sound bad at all!! The Picture Discs sound beautifully clear and I cannot fault the boxset overall. It is a collectors dream!!
              • octopus.records.nyc's avatar
                this boxed set sounds quite good! picture discs sound way better than they used to, in my opinion. i've played thru the whole box and the only thing i've noticed is a slightly higher noise floor across all discs. not that noticeable tho. i have OG copies of 'i should coco' and 'life on other planets' and these picture discs are almost as crisp and detailed. considering 'road to rouen' alone will set you back almost 100 smackers, this boxed set is a great bargain. play tested with a lyra delos on a pro-ject 9.1 turntable.

                  I would have been all over this if it weren't for the picture discs. Such a disappointment. Anyone know if there are plans to reissue the albums individually?

                    Unbelievable this was issued with picture discs. Pointless and disappointing.

                      I disagree with reviews saying the pic discs sound fine. They all sound terrible to me. It's a shame such a great package was ruined by the pointless decision to make the LPs picture discs. They should have been high quality black pressings - after all this box is or should be the end all for Supergrass collectors and fans.

                      The pic discs have a layer of static/noise typical of pic discs (endemic to the production method). It's most evident when you drop the needle and hear the first 5-8 seconds of "silence" which in fact sounds more like an old black and white movie soundtrack's quiet parts....such a bummer.
