The Dave Brubeck Quartet | Time Out

For over 60 years, Bernie Grundman has been one of the most respected names in mastering. His extraordinary ear picks up the kind of subtle details most people miss – the small nuances that change everything. With his team, he doesn’t just “fix” sound: he brings out what makes each album unique. His pursuit of balance between technical precision and raw emotion has made his masterings true references in the vinyl world.

QRP reflects the vision of founder Chad Kassem, a true vinyl and hi‑fi enthusiast. Believing that sound quality should always come first, he rebuilt and optimized the plant’s machines to achieve unmatched precision. His philosophy is simple: every record must be the best it can possibly be, even if it takes more time and effort. This obsession with quality has made QRP a global reference for audiophile pressings.

A record spinning at 45 revolutions per minute allows for wider grooves and more sonic information. The result: less distortion and greater clarity.
