Phil Collins Remasters

Do you know what year they were remastered? The engineer?

My experience with remasters has been nothing but positive with regards to CDs only. In general, the latest releases I own always beat the originals on SQ. Better dynamics (less compression), better timbres, better clarity, air, bloom, tone, blacker backgrounds, even better PRaT. So, FWIW, my advice is to always purchase remasters, the latest date the better, especially if available in HDCD, SACD or Blueray. YMMV...

And room treatment. The room is at least 50% of what you're going to hear. If the acoustics aren't good...

I heard through the grapevine Phil Collins is back in the stu-stu-studio.

That has rarely been my experience - most remasters are horribly compressed. Often the original is better if it was released in the 80’s.
