Fonè records VINYLS
Following pressing requests from the enthusiast market, and after a long series of tests to determine the best support material to use, fonè is now able to make available our best titles in LP version, using 180 grams virgin vinyl as the base.
This is strongly contrary to the current of present-day international market trends, which tend ever more towards a homogenised product with little real content. These are pressings of the highest quality and are dedicated to those who can appreciate the search for perfection in the field of sound reproduction, to collectors, and to connoisseurs of beautiful things.
Signoricci Vinyl
giulio cesare ricci “Signoricci” started collecting vinyls and tape recorders when he was 10 years old. While most youngsters dream of becoming engine drivers, police officers or fire fighters, giulio cesare ricci was different, at the age of 18 he did his first cutting. All that he wanted to do was to own his own record company, and 40 years ago the dream came true when he launched fonè with the first vinyl release and since then the production of LPs has been central to his activity with professional collaborations at the highest levels in the analogue domain.
Now the Signoricci ultimate vinyl generation pressed in Germany, in USA and in Japan from analogue master and with analogue cutting is a reality.
A step of the production process fundamental to guarantee the transfer and the preservation of the originary quality of the Analogue Master is represented by the Cutting which is done with State of the Art devices, with extreme dedication, and in continuous evolution.
