No, according to the image, those are PCs, I think you got the two mixed up.

It's like a Laserdisc, but smaller.

Pole -- 1 2 3

I guess it's the freshly reissue which has been remastered. How does those 3 sound?

I can't really compare, because even though I was familiar with the originals, I never actually owned them (which is why this bundle was convenient). He obviously knows what he's doing, having worked at Dubplates & Mastering before and now operating his own mastering studio with ~scape mastering, but I guess they already sounded pretty good anyway, so I don't think that much has changed really; this is from a recent interview where he was asked about any major changes in sound for the re-issues: 

"I don't like the term 're-mastering'. That's only called for if the original pressing didn't actually sound good. Here I just made sure that the vinyl sounded a little more open in parts, because there was a tad too little treble here and there on Pole 1 and 2, and most importantly that cutting flaws like distortion and needle jumping were corrected. Otherwise, the box set was meant to replicate the vibe from back then a 100%. So I deliberately didn't make everything LOUDER, but rather adjusted some inaccuracies without removing their charm."

Complete interview in German

I didn't even had any doubt he would say and do this in any different way, but still it's good to read before I can listen to this reissue.

Maybe the real improvement is the packaging, which is also good news since the previous issue from 2008 was not really doing any kind of justice to what's inside, editorialy and in terms of preservation. Just saying.

Yeah, packaging is really nice in person, nothing too fancy, but very slick looking. Totally happy with the purchase for the price.

Found an awesome deal for old UR bundle. Dunno how long Revolution For Change has been on my discogs wishlist but should get it here soon
