"When true balance is achieved, sonic excellence needs no subsequent belated recognition, and that was precisely my first and last reaction to the Nagra 70th Anniversary vinyl. The musical and sonic panacea is served up immedately and in full, with no need to foreground the contrast between sound and music. Laflamme has hit exactly the right sweet spot. ... The Nagra 70th Year Anniversary Collection album is not the usual analog ahoy, but a true balm for the soul with precipitating effects and tactile realilty checks on all four sides of the Nagra double vinyl album. For what it represents musically and sonically, I am pleased to present the Nagra 70th Year Anniversary Collection with the Mono & Stereo 2022 Editors Choice Award." — Matej Isak (Mono & Stereo founder)
