I haven't heard them all, but I have compared the Moving Pictures regular release to the remaster and the MFSL Gold CD. The new remaster sounds too digital and lean....a little hot too. The MFSL is unbeleivable and is as close as you are going to get to the vinyl release. Worth locating one and worth the money if you really like the album.
Are new Rush remasters better?
I went to my local music store and found that my favorite band Rush has come out with brand new remasters of all of their albums. They remastered (and repackaged) all their CD's. They're not special edition or anything, these new remasters simply replace the old CD's.
I'm curious to get opinions on how much better they sound (if they do) to know whether it's worth it for me to replace my existing CD's. Posts I've read elsewhere say some are bigger improvements than others, but I want the audiophile opinion.
Of course, I'm a little jaded after reading a few posts on here about CD's from the store vs. BMG. The computer tests show they are digitally identical, but people swear they hear differences.
