Improved Sound Quality
The remastered vinyl edition of The Vinyl in 2016 is an interesting clean up that brings new life into this classic album. It adds a clear perspective of what the soundstage should sound like, and it adds great echoes and depth to sound which were light on in the old vinyl, but the main thing is keep keeps the old vinyl sound and reproduction.

The Pressing
The 180-gram vinyl pressing is nice as it adds a new high-quality listening experience with rich, warm sound to all the old favourites.
One Issue
The vinyl is more vibrant but at times sounds more digital than ever before and not as organic as it used to especially in which has a slight noise over it which you can hear clearly but it is organic in tis the pitch is risen and is a bit digital. The remaster process on the album is very good except for this light digital sound you can hear
A Good Remaster
The remastered edition makes the polished production better in lots of areas and the sound in most areas is amazing. It brings out the details of Collins’ drumming and vocal performance.
The Dynamic Range
The album hass a huge dynamic range and instrumentation which makes the vinyl special as it gives you that feel which is so much more feeling based than the cd. It is worth a listen on any good vinyl copy.
The Vinyl
This vinyl is worth a listen to and is so much better than the cd, but I prefer the old copy I have from 1985 for certain sounds, but I love this addition as well as it makes the album new and fresh again.
