READY TO SEND THE SAME DAY. See photos for tracklisting and other details. The SHM-CD [Super High Material CD] format features enhanced audio quality through the use of a special polycarbonate plastic. Using a process developed by JVC and Universal Music Japan discovered through the joint companies' research into LCD display manufacturing, SHM-CDs feature improved transparency on the data side of the disc, allowing for more accurate reading of CD data by the CD player laser head.
SHM-CD format CDs are fully compatible with standard CD players. Japanese CDs are manufactured to the highest mastering specifications to produce outstanding sound quality and an improved audio experience that many audiophiles regard as superior to a standard CD. Some releases are also enhanced further via world class mastering techniques such as SHM CD, XRCD, Blu-Spec CD and HQCD. Japanese CDs are produced in limited quantities, often feature Japan Only bonus tracks or bonus CD/DVDs (not available in any other country) and can be out of print for many years. Cover art and photos are also reproduced from the original release faithfully and at the highest quality.
All of these factors make Japanese releases highly sought after by collectors, especially as their value will often increase substantially over time. SHM-CD's will play on a normal CD player. Ems will be sent with online tracking. Photos are stock images - any additional stickers on the outside may differ slightly in position to that shown in the photos.
