This is unbelievable good in any aspect! Thx Chad and Team!
It warms my heart so much to see such joy and dedication in producing great vinyl records. Acoustic Sounds is all about the music and putting the music before profit. That is the way it should be and what audiophiles like me want. 😻😻😻😻😻
thanks for the interview with CK michael
Hi Michael 🫡
@@audiophileman7047 well said - beautifully put!
@@alexleitch37 Thanks, glad you agree.
Don't laugh at me, but I got teary eyed knowing everything Chad has accomplished. I know how hard it is to build one thing, imagine adding everything you need to ensure you have the best possible quality of every detail of your product. This is one man's vision fulfilled and a legacy. And the world is better, at least a small but important part of it, because of him. Thanks Chad!
Came here to say this. This was really moving. So many companies (including the original industry giants that killed dynamic audio (loudness wars) AND killed the vinyl format) are now cashing in on a quick buck with vinyl's resurgence in popularity by churning out sub-par quality pressings, but AS are actually doing it RIGHT, soup to nuts.
A beautiful post from an encourager!
Goosebumps here too. What a consolation when someone else is still lying
I agree. The work of this man ( company ) is worth Laurel Wreaths. And by merit, he now takes the crown of the VC.
Me, too.
If this week has taught me anything, it's that what Chad and co. are doing in Kansas should not be taken for granted. Bravo.
Chad was smart about this, best time couldn’t be better, this will bring more sales to him and he deserves it. AP records are great.
analog productions should be taking mofis market share ... they are head and shoulders above the rest
only complaint is i wish they had some more contemporary titles and maybe leaned into some different genres - but i respect that chad does what chad likes and thats what keeps it authentic
mofi will never see my £ again
and now doubly so... "buy now, or cry later"
I never thought I would get through 2 minutes of this corporate video...let alone 27 minutes.
I ended up watching the whole thing twice.
I have never seen such genuine passion and authenticity.
"Trust happens when leaders are transparent." Jack Welch. Consumers Trust Chad because he has been up front from day 1 and because of that transparency his business has flourished. A Superb company that cannot be matched, Period! Congrats on the Video!
Jack Welch was a f*ckn moroǹ. He dumped toxic waste in the Hudson river and destroy millions of jobs in the altar of Wall Street. Next time you might want to quote a greek philosopher or Shakespeare. These fellas never hurt anyone.
The best in the business
@@ralex3697 Best in the business my *as. But don't trust my word: check GE stock for further assurance.
@@ralex3697 Agreed! I did 3 video's recently emphasizing the brand. Part 1,2 & 3.
@@The_One-Eyed_Undertaker in one line you’ve made it clear you have no idea what AP do?
The way the music industry SHOULD be. A collective of professional yet passionate music lovers doing their best to provide the best product possible to their customers, and having a lot of pride in doing so.
I remember back in the day when Chad just had a few boxes of records, and a great big dream. And his small shop on Santa Fe, before this phenomenal business.
His story, his legacy, is so very inspirational. I am proud of him, and proud my sister and bro-in-law are managers there. Deidra is an Accounting wizard and Jerry has at least 20 years printing press experience and is the Master of printing, for sure. Salina is our hometown and this gives me pride.
You know, as good as Chad's records are, The shipping boxes are sooo good that I can't throw them away! What a great company.....and the music? Forget about it. It's the best of the best!
I watched this on my TV. This is not any old You Tube video it’s a fully produced film of supreme quality. Great to see how my Jimi Hendrix UHQR was made. Loved it. Superb.
Thank you to all at AS/AP/QRP for bringing us the absolute best in record reproduction!
Having purchased from every audiophile label around, I can say that Analogue Productions/Acoustic Sounds are second to none. The highest quality overall. I've never had any seam splits or vinyl issues from Chad's company.
I got one seam split. I live in Chile, the replacement of the numbered UHQR arrived in last than a week from me sending an email.
At 72, I hope I live to see what the next 10 years bring. I have been an analogue audiophile since 1974, a music lover long before that, so glad to see my faith so richly rewarded. And so many new folks come into the fold.
I've been buying records from Chad & co. since the 90s - they never disappoint. Fantastic video which really solidifies all the reasons we should be infinitely grateful to him and his team. In this day and age it's rare to see quality put above all other considerations.
This company is absolutely incredible. I’ve never seen such fine attention to detail and such premium quality in any industry. When you order from Acoustic Sounds or purchase an Analogue Productions record, you really feel like you’re holding something special where every millimeter has been scrutinized. Kudos. Bravo.
You always left me satisfied and smiling!
Wow.
This was beautifully done.
I can’t imagine anybody watching this, and not wanting to get into vinyl.
Only disappointment was no screen time for my favourite customer service dude “Bud”.
Honestly, the most surprising and impressive part to me is that the art guys have to sometimes recreate a jacket the parent label didnt have copies of. Really impressive work
I live in Wichita, KS and happy to have this great company in our state! GREAT products, GREAT customer service, GREAT shipping/packaging, and many other GREATS! I've ordered from them a lot and thank you for all you do!
A truly incredible video, thanks so much for showing me why my AP records sound so great.
Every time I order from Acoustic Sounds I know I’m getting the best of the best. This video just proves it!
How fucking awesome is Chad and Acoustic Sounds.
Just imagine a world of people who ran their businesses like Chad.
You can’t see me but I bow before your decency and commitment.
Great video which shows that AP’s key to success isn’t some “secret sauce” in their mastering or pressing process. It’s their people. Everyone striving for nothing short of excellence in their job performance is what creates those heirloom quality products.
A very fascinating look at what passion and true craftsmanship is all about.
Your video underscores why Acoustic Sounds is the number one audiophile label and trusted source to buy records from. Your transparency, ethics and excellence are second to none and as we have learned recently, not every company operates with the same standards. You have built something to be proud of, I love your company and your products.
I love things that are vintage, things of the past. Like loyalty, respect and fidelity.
Chad’s accomplishments are spectacular. The word no doesn’t exist in his orbit. He’s built a beautiful manufacturing plant. I have great respect for his passion
Analog Productions has consistently been the gold standard for both quality and variety for music lovers. Chad is the man!
This company IS the gold standard ! Period.
I have ordered several albums from Acoustic Sounds. Excellent quality. UHQR version of Kind of Blue from Miles Davis, Love is the thing from Nat King Cole, Come Away With Me from Nora Jones, Buddy Holly , Dave Brubeck Quartet Time Out, etc.... Soon I'll be ordering some Tom Waits. These guys are a class act.
I just want to say a big thank you to Chad and his team. I’ve been a customer of Acoustic Sounds for over 20 years now and you’ve never let me down.
Some of the best sounding and well cared for records I ever bought. Absolutely love Acoustic Sounds.
Chad, I have to say, your company hasn’t disappointed me with every purchase I’ve made. Every AP album has been phenomenal sounding on my system. Kudos to you and your awesome team!
Vinyl couldn’t possibly be in better hands. thanks Chad ! don’t ever retire
Quality Team =Quality Product. Well done Ladies and Gentlemen 👏👏
Chad, you and your company are simply put,”The Best”. I have dealt with you at music shows and the way that you come across on RUclips is the way you are in person. This video was an excellent production for what your company stands for and thank you for your transparency.
You have strived for perfection your whole life and now we all reap the benefit from it, so for you Chad and the entire Analogue Production family from you all the way down to the forklift drivers and everyone in between, stand up and take a bow because you have earned the public’s trust, one record at a time and I wish you and your entire staff continued success and you have earned a customer for life.
Holy crap, this video is so good. I got misty-eyed a couple times. Unbelievably good storytelling and visuals. Thank you all so much, and especially Chad for a lifetime of dedication to bringing us the best releases of the best recordings in the history of recorded music.
DON'T CHANGE A THING! you are doing it so right. 4 years seriously into the hobby and AP/QRP is my cornerstone. From initial content choices to final product ( even shipping tech ) AP is tops, tops, tops. Chad and Family, y'all are doing the lords work over there. Keep it up. Without you all, this hobby would not be the same for me! ( today I turned Beach Boys MONO Surfer Girl..... tops! )
Im thinking of escaping Vegas and heading for KS.
What I find striking is the passion from the staff members. They are really loving what they do and it shows. A testament do a great company that has great leadership at all levels. The transparency in everything they do is SO refreshing!! Man, I just love Analogue Productions even more now. 🎶👏👍🙏
You have to have passion, because the pay is awful.
Lots of people loving their job. The proof is in the product and it's delivery to my house. Well done.
I am very, very grateful for Chad doing what he does. His records are incredible in every way. As long as they keep up this level of quality I will be a customer for life.
Chad and everyone else there seem very proud of what they do, and his staff seem like wonderful people. Such a well produced video. Thank you!
I will say this. I have received records from all over the world going back to the 90s. The shipping boxes that AS uses are by far the best I have ever seen and handled.
Impressive, this is the reason I love Analogue Productions. Thank you to Chad and his wonderful staff to make all my listening pleasure a heavenly experience. Cheers to you all🍷
Thank you Chad! I have never been disappointed by your products.
This is an outstanding video. Great work. What was particularly great is the focus on each of the AS employees involved in the process. QUALITY!
Chad,
This a "great" overview of you and your staff...and company. I remember buying the mono Hendrix box set while surfing the web in Eskisehir, Turkey, one night years ago. I had NO idea about you and your company. I figured that anyone who would go through all the hassles of bring out this great Lp could not be all bad. Since then I have purchased a lot of your products. If I was still teaching high school I would show this video to my sociology/anthropology classes, I told my students if you want to be the best at what you love you have to go to the person(s) who are the best. If one wants to be the best at record production it looks like Kansas is the place to go.
Again, thank you and your staff for all you do for us music lovers.

Ive spent a fortune on quality records. The only one makes me buzz is a package from these guys. I have never received a poor record or damages jacket. I'm all in and congratulations on an extremely well produced documentary. Landmark company...............well done
What a fantastic film about the work of fantastic people! Better understanding the work going into creating these records, really makes for pride of ownership!
I LOVE what you guys at AP and QRP do! I feel like the quality of products gets worse and worse every year but you all are the exception. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Chad and the whole team. Love your records. Great video thanks!
I've been a fan of QRP and AP since they started. When I dumped my massive collection of LP's last year, I kept all of my AP pressings...they are just to good to be records, right. If they had been making records like this back in the 1980's, the LP would never have fallen out of favor in the first place.
These guys are the real deal! There are 10 ways to do something.... there is only one way to do it right.
To quote directly from Chad this is "Quality", outstanding behind the scenes look with the real people who make the products we all love world wide.
I will show clips of this to my students when I teach how records are made. Awesome job, everyone!
Thank you! thank you! thank you! to everyone at Acoustic Sounds! You are the best! I love the passion everyone of you puts into getting me the best record I can have!!!
Chads focus to always improve has shown through the years. He has succeeded in his goal of making the worlds best records. Good job AP team!
I have only three records from you guys, one being the analogue productions press of Greg Allmans Laid Back album......absolutely jaw dropping sound quality! Everything I have ever received from your company has been nothing but top notch quality! Thank you for your dedication to this art! Tomorrow I am expecting my analogue productions pressing of The Doors L.A. Woman!! I am beyond stocked!!! You have a customer for life right here 🙂
Simply awesome….. thanks Chad
And the award for Most Perfectly-Timed Brand Video of All-Time goes to…
Chad, you're a class act. I appreciate & admire your passion.
Thanks Chad, Jerry,Marc, Matthews, Stan (Love your beard bro), Marshall (You are not crazy 😜 ) Anthony, Jenn, James,Erin,(Yes your packaging is the best! ) and Sara for your dedication to perfection! Please keep the wonderful work etiquette !!! Unbelievably great job and what a beautiful facility.
You have my word that I will continue to support you guys and buy more stuff from your wonderful establishment!
Well done Chad ! 🙏🏼
Honour to whom honour is due. 😉Best regards from Austria!!
What an inspiring video you have made about your company and your people. Great Job Chad! I can say ordering from the UK I have experienced your quality recordings and service first hand. Impressive…
The best vinyl company by far
Hats off to you and your company Mr. Kassem. Truly a great American company!
Great video and the end message is very encouraging. Led Zep 1-4 audiophile reissues are desperately needed and AP should be the ones to tackle them.
Congratulations Chad and team. A great video showing the end to end process and care you put it. Cheers
Absolutely loved this. Thank you Chad and everyone at Quality Records. My favourite pressing in my collection
Back in the 70s and 80s MOFI was the king. But those in the know already knew that you guys are the king of the 21st century.
This video was amazing! Thank you Chad and all your incredible employees.
I love, love, love the enthusiasm and passion all up and down the line in every department! Congratulations, Acoustic Sounds!!
Thanks Chad! This is the result of you keeping the faith and the perseverance and hard work of the Acoustic Sounds team!
This is a thrill for me as the owner of a video production company and only live recorded vinyl record label. The storyline takes the audience to unexpected places. The passion is perceptible, and it truly inspires me to be a part of the entire story behind this vinyl gold we are so passionate about. Keep up the good work, guys, and I'm looking forward to seeing the new releases. Best, Petar
What a great video. Love the little interviews with the staff. And looking at my row of Trane's Impulse reissues I think I know what I am gonna play when the video is over.
I already loved QRP/Analogue Productions prior to this video but now I have absolute respect for Chad and the whole crew at AP, I just want to Thank You all for the hard work and excellent records you’ve brought to us. Customer for life 👍🏾
Impressive! I really like that the focus was on the end product and the employees told the story.
This is why I buy almost exclusively from Acoustic Sounds and why I always look for Analogue Productions product. I know it will be of the highest quality always.
If you buy a record from another source, how can you tell if it was made by Acoustic Sounds? Is there anything printed anywhere that identifies the manufacturer?
This was so interesting! You really have something to be proud of. Glad we have been a part of it as well.
After multiple decades of buying records. These days, you got to check that brand new record before you even leave the store. I've had so many issues with so many albums that it truly sucks to know that you cant just drive 4 hours to return an album. I know, right from the start. No matter what title that Chad puts out. You can totally walk out of the store knowing that you will be pleased when you do get home to open it.
This video was awesome. Thank you to everyone who has the passion for this place.
It's a small thing, but if you look at the quality of their shipping boxes, you know the care that they take in producing the records.
awesome - just awesome
Excellent video 👏 I’ve watched it twice. Fascinating stuff 🤓 Acoustic Sounds is the gold standard in vinyl. Don’t ever compromise quality, we all love you for it!
great, great video Chad! Excellent to see some of the folks behind the scenes that are involved in manufacturing, quality, packaging and distribution.
Great Job!!! that's why I spend waaaaay too much money at AP - you guys rock
This is the best video I have seen this year :) So well made and showing what a wonderful job you are doing and how you all enjoy it!
Top notch video, makes me want to order more records immediately! :)
You guys and girls are creating a legacy for me and the rest of the world to enjoy.
Thank you.
❤️ from 🇸🇪
The people make the difference in everything, and this video illustrates that better than anything I can say. Every record I’ve purchased from Acoustic Sounds has been perfection incarnate, and no other company has ever bettered them. Hats off to each and every person involved with this company. You are all creating such a wonderful experience for anyone who loves vinyl, and I can’t wait to see what’s coming next.
Thanks Chad, great video
Watching from the U.K
More classic rock please
You will see more in the future ;)
I have NEVER had a bad Lp from Quality record Pressings. I can't say the same for MoFi
You're only saying that just because of the recent controversy...
@@j.dekker5137 No not at all. I have multiple MoFi "Original Master Recordings" which sound simply terrible.
Several people went through multiple copies of the UHQR "Kind of Blue" because they were either noisy or had one side pressed off-center.
They got refunds because AP was never able to get them a good one and the customers got sick of trying.
You mean RTI? QRP is a pressing plant not a label
@@thomascars1 I ment Analogue Productions
What a lovely video. Time to go buy some more AP records !
Thank you man for sharing this stuff
You are doing a fantastic job, quality, quality,quality, I was just listening Ella and Louis and John Coltrane the sound is unbelievable , keep the good job and we all follow you.
Great treaty on Acoustic Sounds.
I have been buying from them since 2003
You can tell AS puts their profits right back into perfecting their company
Salina must be very proud
Simply the best.
Thank you for doing this it keeps me inspired I'm retired I will listen to music since I was a kid I listen to records everyday first thing I do in when I get up in the morning is put on a record thank you have a great day
I think the quality has gotten better and better. Y’all should be proud of the product you’re putting out. Cheers!
If Analogue Productions/Acoustic Sounds didn't exist, I definitely would not be a vinyl collecting, audiophile. It was hearing an AP record several years ago that turned me on to this lifestyle (You guys have cost me a lot of money lol). I now have a bunch of AP and other QRP pressings and have been thrilled by the quality of every single one.
I have bought a bunch of your guys' records (mainly the recent Verve Acoustic Sounds Jazz series) and I have to say, the work you guys put into your product, no matter the price range, is palpable. Holding your reissue of Mingus' Black Saint and the Sinner Lady feels as though I have bought and played it the year it came out. You guys are doing great work and I will continue to support whatever I can as long as the product is this good. The video here only helps to reinforce this for me. Great work to you all.
True passion for music, commited to customer satisfaction, driven by the best accuracy and quality over the whole chain, in the most consistent way step after step. Thank you Chad and team for making me happy since many years !
Outstanding video showcasing an outstanding company. Thanks for all you do, to me you are incomparable and your hard work is greatly appreciated.
