Watch out if you ar buying these on ebay, theres been a huge run of fakes, particularly the Beatles ! Audiophile International sometimes has a few MF cds.

If you are after MFSL you can get them through Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com. Use one of their Marketplace sellers as you can save quite a bit.

You can also try the link below, I've used them and discs arrive within a week

http://amusicdirect.com/labels/mofi/

and check what's available at :

Another UK based link you can try is www.vivante.co.uk

Not cheap,but has a superb selection of MoFI,and other audiophile labels.

Yeah, they are hard to find used, so you might have to buy them new instead.

Why don't you try buying them from Mo-fi directly?

www.mofi.com

Not sure if they ship to the UK (can't see why not). Shipping will add to the cost, but you might as well get some now while Dollar/sterling is 1.94!!

Good point....may well be cheaper even when shipping and Customs and Excise's little slice has been levied,especially if you buy more than one disc.
Certainly used to be that way buying ordinary CD's from the US.

Re: Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab cd's

Old thread but I would like to find MFSL CD for DSOTM and Red Hot Chili Peppers ~ Mother's Milk (a properly produced RHCP CD, need to hear!)

Cannot do eBay. So over to you lot

P.S. overkill since you prefer your vinyl copy perhaps we can talk
