Genesis | Selling England by the Pound

Classically trained on piano, Chris Bellman joined Bernie Grundman’s team in 1984. That musical foundation shows in his work: he knows how to bring out the soul of an album. From Neil Young’s rock to Elton John’s ballads, every mastering he signs preserves the artist’s intent while adding clarity, depth, and energy.

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.
