Continuing an archived thread by John Elison from 15 years ago. I'm listening to a later Telarc recorded using DMM and it's great. Totally quiet, nice music, great bass and vocal ranges. Telarc lp from 1985 Orchestral Spectaculars.

My Dmm Telarc lps are sounding wonderful (in my system, of course).

....if you are a master mastering engineer, and figure out the tricks and get it to work. But if you put an average mastering engineer on the job, at a mass-market record company, the results may not be as good as if they had used four-step mastering, which they know how to do.
What do you want to know?
The short version is that the groove is cut into copper instead of lacquer and a high-frequency bias is added to the signal to reduce the drag (kinda like what is done when recording tape). It eliminates the plating steps needed when using lacquer, and the more rigid copper blank allows for slightly closer groove spacing.
....as well as a softer vinyl lacquer. There is a tendency towards ringing and other unpleasant distortion.
In general, leaves out a manufacturing step but may or may not impact bass. I've heard good ones and I've heard bad ones.
