Why do I keep torturing myself with remasters?


I am really beginning to believe these 180 remasters are mixed for a 500.00 system.It seems every one I buy it's either super bright,or has an ass load of bass in all the wrong places.The Bowie i have the soundstage is all wacked out .I have a decent setup but i can't imagine how much more obvious it must be on a serious setup.I can say the Yes fragile I got lately (cut fromt he original tapes) sounds pretty good ,Zeppelin In thru the outdoor Yikes! so bright waste of 25.00 again.....

Removing unwanted signal is futile because to remove that extra signal needs digital processing and it always just lessens sound quality.
I personally don´t want any kind of digital processing to the original information. I´m not excited about analog either but can accept in certain cases.
Not another analog digital debate, please..
not the topic


A friend of mine received some pristine 1950s and 60s jazz from a friend who’s dad had passed away. He knew a few of the names but had no idea what he was holding. Treasure troves like some small label Duke Ellington.

As I was updating him on what he had I told him this would be a flash forward to some music lover picking through our extensive collections


Really put it in perspective
I agree ehto
    I lost thousand of albums to a house fire ,replacing them is virtually impossible.I shop in the obvious places and see something I had used for 50 bks to hundreds .That puts alot in prospective for me ,I think to myself  "if i could just shop from my old collection i would be stoked"
     Unforntunatley i was bit like many in the early 90s to let the lp12 sit and start collecting the ultimate sound! compact discs lol (many thousands were lost).
       I am rebuilding my collection again and I don't think i've bought 10 cd (used at that),and hundreds and hundreds of albums,That said i do have probly 10,000 albums in mp3 :(
      I still say original and japanese if i can get it. I just popped open a sealed Steely Dan Aja tonight lmtd original ,it was warped pretty bad when playing on bside even with my clamp.I shot the guy an email (ebay purchase) he told me to keep the album and he refunded my money back to paypal.I thought that was pretty cool because it was sealed and that can be a gamble sometimes because of age yannow

You have dealt with a true gentleman. + you can fix the warped record easily. Buy a Vinyl Flat + Groovy Pouch.
