Been eyeing this for a while at Best Buy. Is it any good?

Edit: Bah can't edit the subject line.

I do not have the set, nor have I heard news wildly positive or negative regarding the set. A few places you might go to check for (potentially) informed opinions/reviews of the set include:

Steve Hoffman Forums: http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/

- Excellent starting point for any research re Sound Quality, Pressing Data,
etc. pertaining to LPs and CDs.

Royal Orleans: http://www.royal-orleans.com/

- A prominent LZ fan site with a pretty informative forum.

Underground Uprising: http://uuweb.led-zeppelin.us/

- Another LZ fan site, dedicated mainly to ROIO recordings, but the forums
address such general interest topics as the SQ of various official release
pressings, etc.

nb: There is - was? - also a fan site called Fresh Brains, but the link I have
bookmarked for that site is coming up as Not Found

Enjoy your Mothership box set. :music:

I own it, and play it constantly. Very good recording, quiet background, nice soundstage, and good details; though find that cymbals could have been mastered somewhat at a higher volume.
