Here is a different presentation. Powered by Ching Cheng and using subs that vibrate like an adult toy as amp stand :). Tango's special tweak.

One of my perversities is enjoying a certain amount of microphonics from DHT tubes.

One day with no music I heard a lovely angel chorus through the system and it was oscillations and feedbacks from the tubes in the system.

....and there is a "PINGGg" every once in a while playing music or not. A reminder that this is my system. :)

The tweak here is the original LP which was among the best recordings that Decca made.

I have the Speakers Corner reissue, did you have the chance to compare?

No. I did many speaker corner, classic records, Fone, analog productions, ORG, ERC, represses by Decca etc and other compares at the General (and using some of those records in different SS/cone based systems), then just gave up. It is very easy to hear. For this particular original, the dynamic range and purity is extremely high.
 
This is an LP I really like but I could never find a really clean first pressing, the ones I listened may be worn as they sounded less dynamic and also had some noise, so I just keep listening the Speakers Corner reissue.

That's the case with many unfortunately. So yes, best not to listen to originals, then speakers corner and classic records are very good.

Arhhh...that would be an unfair advantage indeed. I wish I have that precious original.
My two pressings are 1) Korean 2) Holland.
the one in video is this.

Can you play the original to see if we hear a difference in the video? You had bought one from G
 
C'mon, who wants to take the blind test between Vyger red sparrow vs continuum Caliburn with etsuro gold? Which one did you prefer?

I like the 'pings', too. They are like Zen soundings.
