Vinyl Quality and Experience

Avril Lavigne Neon Green Vinyl

Listening to this vinyl on my Rega Planar 1 turntable has been a fantastic experience. Set your turntable speed to 33 rpm and you’re good to go. The sound quality is superb, featuring rich tones, punchy bass and clear highs that only vinyl can provide, especially when paired with the Douk Audio tube preamp.

The vibrant colors of the Avril Lavigne Greatest Hits vinyl in Neon Green add to the overall appeal, making each listening session feel special and nostalgic. This neon green vinyl is one of the brightest and most vibrant records I’ve ever owned since I started my vinyl collection.

The Greatest Hits vinyl comes with two inner sleeve covers, each featuring Avril Lavigne photos on the pink cover art and the tracklisting on the other side. However, it does not include inner sleeve plastic, so I recommend getting these vinyl accessories to protect the vinyl records from scratches. Initially, there was a static charge that made it difficult to take out the vinyl, so having the right protective accessories is crucial.

Listening to over an hour of Avril Lavigne’s greatest hits transported me back to the early 2000s, evoking a deep sense of nostalgia. Even in 2024, her classic pop-punk tracks remain timeless and vibrant. The weight for Avril Lavigne’s greatest hits vinyl isn’t specified, but it is likely 140gm, which is common for many standard vinyl records. The pressing quality is top-notch, with no defects such as warping or scratches.
