I have wanted this box set for a long time, the collection finally came back in stock. Just the right price, perfect condition when it arrived. Pink Floyd is a band that has the sounds of the Earth and Universe combined. Absolute artistry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply a perfect collection
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2015

No need to discuss my opinions of the band here. Clearly I love their entire catalogue or I wouldn't have purchased this product. You, the reader, and probably of the same mind or else you wouldn't be considering the purchase of this product. So moving on.

All 16 albums are the 2011 remasters and are by far the superior releases. I already owned several of these albums on CD and vinyl and did not mind the double-dip considering the quality of the sound. Particular on songs like "Echoes" or the entire "Dark Side" album, where subtlety is key to the music, these releases allow Floyd's soundscapes to be full explored by the discerning listener. One side note about these versions of the albums is the inclusion of "When the Tigers Broke Free" on "The Final Cut." It is added as track 4 where it was not included in the original release of this album.

As for the complaints some people had about the presentation of the box set, I cannot agree with them at all. The digipacks are tight and glossy, with much (in some cases all) of the original artwork present. Maybe they didn't see the album booklets which are a little difficult to get out at first. In addition to the album art, you get a 60-page book with rare and previously unreleased art and pictures (I particularly liked the deconstructed "Ummagumma" album cover). All pictures are accompanied by a small quote describing the history of that art and how it was created (cameras, lens, enhancements, etc.). For such short blurbs, I felt they explained each piece rather nicely. This entire package adds to the total Floyd album experience rather than detracts from it. Finally, the outer shell is a very sturdy top-gate box kept closed with magnets. I couldn't believe how perfect it all looked. Perhaps the only complaint one might have is the disc art. Each disc has the album's name and track list with credits typed over a background pattern of this box set's icon. Keep in mind that the original vinyl releases would also have had a generic look to them so this shouldn't be a major deal.

I would recommend this box set to anyone who is a fan of Floyd but never bought their albums, or those who bought a few but would like to upgrade to the 2011 remasters. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed by this box set. The only catch is its availability. As of the time I write this, it seems to be in limited quantities and 3rd party sellers and pricing it at various levels (I got mine brand new for $140 all told, but it is currently priced at a minimum $210, only one month after I purchased mine). So good luck price-hunting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loudness Wars no more!
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2018

Loudness Wars no more! This is the entire Pink Floyd studio album collection with every note in the right place, every dynamic nuance as it should be. The only deviations from the original stereo master tapes has been to gently restore what the passage of time has done to the original analog tapes, and to repair the very few recording mistakes that were impossible to mend in the 20th century. The levels on "Fat Old Sun" have been corrected. That one piano note in "San Tropez" that distorted on every LP and early CD is as clear as a bell. The last crescendo of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" that has always been woolly has been tightened up just a bit. Little things like that. What hasn't been touched is the essence of the music. It's all as I remember from the first LP, but better. The bass line on "Echoes" has a solidity that was unknown to records. Guitar parts that had bite the first time the record was played, but slowly faded with every play are crisp and clean and will not fade. These CDs sound like the best open reel tape copies that few of us could own.

If you're like me and have a hodgepodge of Pink Floyd records, tapes and CDs that seem to be missing something, this box set may be the answer. James Guthrie has achieved something significantly better than the 2006 remasters. I was skeptical, and kept this on a shelf for a long time before I read about how Loudness Wars was still around. Then I listened for crushed dynamics, and sure enough I found them in some cases. I had been playing Immersion discs for some PF albums, but others were 1990s vintage. I had retired my records and first CDs years before. As I opened the box and unwrapped each disc and played it, I heard an old familiar sound that had been lost in recent years. I wish I could do the same for every CD I own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awsesome Set!
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2013

It's a little pricy, sure...but if it's your favorite band than $100+ seems like a measely amount to own their whole complete discography in a cool collector's set, complete with a cool collectible book...at least if that band is an epic band such as Pink Floyd anyway.

Such is the case with my wife...she's not like me where I have like 101 favorite bands. She has her few absolute favorites, and Pink Floyd happens to be one of them! I myself wouldn't call them an absolute favorite (I love classic rock & modern rock, but I'm a bigger fan of metal music), but I do enjoy their music, ever since I was a kid and I'd listen to them with my dad and even my grandpa.

Being the big Pink Floyd fan that my wife is, it seemed a little sad to me that between the 2 of us we only had a few albums, so I took it upon myself to get her this set as a Christmas gift, because any big self respecting fan of any band ought to own the band's entire discography. She absolutely loved it!

She had not previously heard exactly every single solitary song that Pink Floyd had every put out, though she'd heard most, but after listening to each and every album straight through, she said she was in heaven!

Such a cool set, and it meant the world to me to see her smile like she did with this set! I have even sat down and listened to some of it with her and it's all brilliant! If you are a Pink Floyd fan or just a classic rock fan in general and enjoy Pink Floyd, this is an awesome set to fork out for you if you have the coin. Check it out!

La verdad es que yo la pude comprar por un precio muy bueno, en el tiempo en el que el diario El País había sacado también su colección completa de Pink Floyd, pero con una diferencia de precio de 60€. Así que no me lo pensé ni un momento y adquirí Discovery.

Así que para poner un poco en contexto, haré una de esas comparaciones "odiosas" entre ambas ediciones para ver las diferencias entre ambas, dejando claro que a mí no me paga Amazon (lo cual estaría bien).

Ambas ediciones son casi calcos en lo que respecta al Digipack a primera vista pero la del País es más fiel al vinilo original, incluyendo la imagen original del interior de la carpeta "gatefold", mientras que la del Discovery incluye una imagen diferente. Cambian también las tipografías, siendo la del País un poco más grande.

Los libretos también difieren en la tipografía y en la imagen central de los mismos, pero en el resto son idénticos. El papel es sensiblemente mejor en la edición de El País. Mientras que las portadas de los libretos son el mismo tipo de papel, las páginas interiores son con un papel más satinado en la edición de El País.

Las imprimaciones de los CD's también se diferencian en que la Edidión del País utiliza la imagen de las portadas de los discos, mientras que la Edición Discovery utiliza esa imagen pseudo-psicodelica horrrorosa para todos sus discos.

En cuanto a contenido, ambas ediciones incluyen los mismos discos hasta el "The division Bell", incluyendo "A momentary lapse of reason" (Sin Roger Waters pero aprovechándose de la marca Pink Floyd)

La del País incluye el DVD Pulse (Con la actuación completa) y el insufrible "The Endless River" que es el peor broche que ha podido tener este grupo, un mojón de proporciones bíblicas. A evitar si no queréis gastaros el dinero en un CD de música de hilo musical de ascensor. Y si queréis algo autenticamente Pinkfloydiano, pues os compráis el último de Waters, que ese si que es bueno. "Is this the life we really want?"

En lo que a mí respecta, me quedaría en "The final cut", que es "de lo último decente" que hicieron. La verdad es que es un disco terriblemente aburrido, pero siguen sonando a Pink Floyd.

Por último. El estuche de El País, es una caja sencilla sin más, mientras que el estuche del Discovery es una caja muy pintona con un sistema de imán que facilita la apertura y que incluye un libro con diferentes diseños que realizó el equipo de Hipgnosis para Pink Floyd a través de los años. La verdad es que es un puntazo a favor de esta caja. El libro se extrae fácilmente tirando de una cinta y es muy interesante.

Resumiendo, por precio y extras, indudablemente la edición Discovery es mucho más atractiva. Y el Pulse, se puede adquirir por separado!!

Il primo disco dei Pink Floyd lo acquistai nel 1969, “The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn” in coppia con “A Saucerful Of Secrets” oggi credo introvabile. Ero entusiasta, trovavo quella musica e quel suono diverso da altri gruppi, Purtroppo le registrazioni erano scarse, migliorò col tempo. Venne poi il digitale, il CD mandò in pensione il vinile con tutti i suoi problemi e i suoi riti. C’era bisogno comunque di una rivalutazione, di una rispolverata di freschezza ed ecco che appare un box inedito firmato da James Guthrie, vecchia conoscenza, che gli stessi Floyd affidarono il complicato lavoro di “The Wall”. Per me il nome fu una garanzia e quindi ho comprato il cofanetto. Posso dirvi il mio Pioneer PD 91, Il Pre e Finale e le casse JBL L100T hanno lavorato con i CD rimasterizzati in modo perfetto. Spesso per motivi di civile convivenza ascolto con cuffia Sony MDR Z1R amplificata in abbinamento con Sony TA-ZH1ES High Resolution.
Mi rivolgo a coloro che come me ha voglia di rinnovare la loro collezione ufficiale dei Pink, il Box va bene, poi ognuno la veda come vuole.
A proposito, Sistemare “Ummagumma” parte 1 dal vivo non deve essere stato facile!
Spero di essere stato utile. Grazie

Reviewed in Canada on July 1, 2015

If you're like me, you have three or four Pink Floyd albums, but always thought you might like a lot of their other work if you had the chance to listen to it. Well, here's your chance . . . all 14 of their original studio albums (16 CDs in all as two are double albums) in one box set with all of the original album artwork and booklets, along with a 60 page bonus booklet of Pink Floyd artwork by Storm Thorgerson. And you will like, possibly even love, most of the music in this collection, which covers Pink Floyd from 1967 - 1994. (All you'd need to finish off your PF collection is 2014's "Endless River", and perhaps the "Experience Editions" of "The Dark Side of the Moon" and "Wish You Were Here".) I'm glad I bought this box set - great value for the money when all is said and done.
