Whats on your turntable tonight?

Eddie Harris

lenmc2964, I hope you'll post your impressions on the RS mono box thread.

rushton,

I too resisted the newest PF releases. I sprung for "Meddle" "Obscured By Clounds". "OBC" sounds smoother in a good way, has a more 3D character, but presents a very slightly softer transient response compared to my UK Harvest pressing. Overall, I like the new one. More pleasing to listen to.

Listening today:

Robert Plant and the Sensational Sound Shifters "lullaby and.. The Ceaseless Roar"
Sara Watkins "Young In All The Wrong Ways"
Love "Forever Changes"
Nick Waterhouse "Never Twice"

reubent,

Coincidence that on 10-08-16 I posted Red House Painters on the thread "Tune Of The Day". Also remember posting "Brother Where You Bound" somewhere around that time.

Good music!

FWIW: Today, I compared the new "Meddle" to my UK Harvest. A similar result from above.

The UK: presents as more detailed but this may be a result of it not sounding as smooth or warm as the new re-master. Has a more centralized soundstage.

The new re-master: Smoother sounding. Has a warmth that the UK lacks. A wider and more delineated soundstage. Better integration of lower bass region.

I prefer the new version for a more pleasing experience.
