Half-speed mastering is a high-quality vinyl production technique where both the audio and cutting lathe run at half the normal speed during mastering. This slower process allows for greater precision, resulting in improved sound clarity, sharper high frequencies, and better overall detail. It's especially valued by audiophiles for its enhanced dynamic range and stereo separation. However, it’s more time-consuming and costly, and its benefits are most noticeable when paired with a high-quality original recording and pressing.
