DMM and PET: The perfect solution for the best vinyls ever

Direct Metal Mastering (DMM): Audio is etched directly into the metal (copper) using a high-frequency carrier system and special diamond pins, vibrating at more than 40kHz, to facilitate etching (Father/Positive -> Galvanic/Negative Stamper -> Final Vinyl)

This allows for improved accuracy in the grooves produced, resulting in improved sound output (particularly with reduced background noise and increased response to high frequencies).

Actual benefits of using PET, polyethylene terephthalate, in audio vinyl printing

Perfect centering (eccentricity) vertical and horizontal, ensures significantly reduced wow & flutter during playback.

The grooved surface is ultra-smooth, resulting in very low background noise, which ensures greater effective dynamics, with much better transient response.

It ensures less deformation of the groove during contact with the stylus, resulting in longer life over time, and greater extension and stability of high frequencies.

Insensitivity to static electricity means that it is much less sensitive to dust accumulation and impulsive extemporaneous noises (tick-tocks)

Injection molding, on the other hand, is much more precise and therefore causes less distortion of the grooves, hence a more stable stereophonic image, improved wide and deep and spatial depth.

 

Note

Antonella Vitale, jazz singer, but also sensitive author and musician. Together with a series of highly talented musicians from the Italian jazz scene, such as Andrea Beneventano on piano, Francesco Puglisi on double bass, Alessandro Marzi on drums, Gerry Popolo on saxophones and flute, Aldo Bassi on flugelhorn and trumpet, and Enrico Bracco on guitar, he offers a new and absolutely original reinterpretation of some of Burt Bacharach's most famous songs. From "Walk on by" to "What the world needs now", from "The look of love" to "I'll never fall in love again", from "Raindrops keep falling on my head" to… many others and at the end of the album on side A, an original composition by Antonella herself.
The album was recorded as usual at the large Area Magister Studio in Preganziol, using high-resolution digital technology in the 24bit / 88.2kHz standard, but above all using the extraordinary analog machines present in the studio. And what about the piano, the noble Steinway & Sons D274 Concert Grand, born in New York in 1930 and today, perfectly restored.
At the console, two technicians whose names are known to enthusiasts: Marco Lincetto, with Stefano Isola as an exceptional guest.
Soft and detailed sounds, top-notch dynamics, a beautiful and captivating voice: another pure diamond from the Ladies of Velut Luna.

Great everyday sunscreen
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Really impressed with this sunscreen. It’s a bit thick going on, but a little goes a long way. Once applied, it feels lightweight, not greasy or oily at all. Provides great coverage and protection, definitely a great product I’ll keep using.

The BEST sunscreen I've found
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my MUST HAVE sunscreen. I've had almost every type of skin cancer (thankfully, caught early), so I NEED good sun protection, especially on my face. I have very fair skin. This product leaves a bit of a white cast, but after a short period of time, that white case is absorbed. The white cast of a mineral sunscreen might look chalky on a person with darker skin. The BEST thing about this sunscreen is I can put it on my eyelids and under my eyes, it doesn't irritate my eyes AT ALL. The other well-known sunscreen I used for a long time really made my eyes sting if a bit got into them. This is my favorite sunscreen of all time.

Solid mineral SPF with light coverage effect
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’m used to La Roche-Posay’s chemical sunscreens, so this was my first time trying their mineral version. The texture is actually quite nice for a mineral formula. It spreads evenly and doesn’t feel gritty or chalky. That said, it does take a bit longer to fully absorb compared to chemical SPFs. I’m already very pale, and I still notice a slight white cast. It’s not extreme, but it’s there. To be fair, most mineral sunscreens tend to do this, especially those using zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. Interestingly, on my skin it almost behaves like a very light tinted sunscreen. It slightly blurs and softens the appearance of minor blemishes and redness, which I appreciate on minimal-makeup days. It provides broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection and feels gentle on sensitive skin. I haven’t experienced irritation, pilling, or breakouts. It layers reasonably well over moisturizer but benefits from being applied in thin, well-blended layers, which adds some time to my morning routine so it's a little inconvenient. Overall, it’s a solid mineral option with good protection. Just expect a bit more blending time and a subtle cast.

Great for pregnancy (or regular use)
Style: SPF 50, Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I searched far and wide for a safe mineral-based sunscreen for pregnancy. I settled on this one and I was not disappointed. It saved my skin from a lot of sunburn this summer! As other reviewers mentioned, it is harder to rub into the skin and can leave a whiteish tint, but that’s a small price to pay for a pregnancy-safe option.

Terrible, look like a ghost
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love La Roche-Posay but unfortunately, I finally came across the first product I truly hate from them. This product is a complete white mask on your face and does not settle in at all. You’ll be walking around looking like a ghost all day and it gave me a mild irritation to my eyes.
