Edited 13 days agoCOMPARISON TIME:
2010 US/Sony Legacy/QRP pressing
Vs
2010 EU/MOV/Record Industry press
Ive read time and again that MOV means digital source only and further still even read "pressed from CD" (lol). It maybe largely true that they mostly press from hi res digital files but they have done a few all analogue cuts too (the "pressed from CD" argument is laughable however). Im sure ive also read that the MOV E.U. pressings of the Hendrix family approved remasters of 2010 are inferior to their US counterparts. Ive had the EU MOV of Axis for sometime and always felt it was fantastic. But - for fun and having two identical decks into a single phono stage - ive also now added the 2010 US Legacy pressed at QRP to see if theres any truth that one betters the other for sound. Well i needent have bothered buying the US copy. They sound EXACTLY THE SAME. Period.
Where they differ is in the packaging and pressing quality. Both are superbly pressed, but for buyer confidence its the MOV from Record Industry thats flatter and a tad bit quieter of surface. This is after 4 playthroughs as well as QRP pressings tend to need playthroughs and cleanings to make good. Theres very little in it though and id be happy either way.
Packaging wise im surprised to say the MOV is possibly better. In 2010 this was always the fledgling MOV labels achilles heel.... regularly awful art repro (occasionally brilliant too though just to be random). The MOV artwork has better clarity, colour and contrast of art than my US Legacy here though. The US counters for having a thicker card gatefold. Thus the MOV is better to look at but the Legacy is abit more solid to hold. Not much in it... either would be fine.
Conclusion.... both are winners. Both are excellent options. Both sound the equal of each other. Pick whichever is cheapest to you and be happy! -

Great sounding copy compares very well to OG, very impressed with the quality of the Legacy series overall, highly recommended! -
It seems I have this version, although mine DOES have the transparent inner sleeve. However, there's only the inner 33mm pressing ring visible. Iirc I got this back in 2010. -
Edited 5 months agoDusted this off just now...In my subjective opinion, one of (if not) his greatest LPs. As far as the Pressing and Remaster. It is physically flat, very rarely a slight tick, and sounds damn good on my modest system...
(Fluance RT-82 w/Acrylic Platter, ATN-XP cart/5 stylus. Nobsound T3 Phono Amp, Aiyima A07 Pro, Kicker KB6B, & 2x Polk PSW10 Subs...Simple Low Cost Setup)...Happy Listening -
Excellent reissue, if you get a flat one. I bought and returned three copies of this that had severe warping, before I finally got a flat one. Now that I found a flat one, I’m thrilled. Great remaster. Nice low end and separation. I had one of the Bernie Grundman Mono reissues. And while that sound stellar as well, I prefer this album in stereo, especially with all the panning and flanging effects in the mix. Definitely recommend this version, just be sure to get one that isn’t warped. -
Edited one year agoSuch a great mastering job done by George Marino! There is not much I can add. Everything has been said below. Amazing sounding full of life record.
On a side note, I actually owned the Mono press cut by Bernie Grundman. I was quite happy with it until I heard this. I know mono is more of a preference/different sonic take on this record but I genuinely believe stereo is the best way to enjoy this record and best represents the group’s intended sound.
I’m so happy with this record! -

I enjoyed this reissue so much I ended up ordering the Experience Hendrix pressings of EXPERIENCED, LADYLAND, and FIRST RAYS the day after I played AXIS. Best I've ever heard this priceless music sound, and the quality/price ratio is insane. Just a fantastic sounding record, great depth to the low end, pure and crisp highs, and so much middle. Glad they brought in Eddie Kramer to work on these excellent releases. My copy plays flat and quiet, with zero surface noise. -
