Hi-fi trade body Clarity and Universal Music have teamed up to offer visitors to the National Audio Show in September an exclusive demo of Queen's Studio Collection 180g vinyl box set, a week before it is released.

Queen: The Studio Collection took five years to make and brings together the complete collection of 15 studio albums on 18 records, re-mastered by the legendary Bob Ludwig and mastered for half speed vinyl cutting by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios.

The 18 coloured vinyl records will be sold in a special box for £285 with an illustrated 108-page book featuring material from Queen's archive and the personal archive's of Brian May and Roger Taylor. Each record was pressed at the Optimal vinyl plant in Germany, known for its heavyweight 180g audiophile vinyl releases.
