Sam here again.Is new remastered vinyl fake vinyl?
I grew up on vintage vinyl and I loved that sound, however I haven't owned a turntable in 20 years and the only reason I don't get back into vinyl is because new remastered vinyl is FAKE vinyl and I knew it from the first listen. Granted new remastered vinyl has a lot less surface noise than 1st press vinyl, however the sound is gone and it ain't no accident friends!
Just have a listen to a first pressing of is this love by bob marley straight from YouTube to avoid manipulation of the audio.

now have a listen to the remastered version of the same song.

Clearly the 1st press from 1978 has that very distinct sound I remember however, if I didn't know the remastered version was vinyl I would never know because that distinct sound is not there? And you can find hundreds of examples all with the same results. It looks like the vinyl isn't the only thing being played here friends? Compared to the 1st press the remastered version sounds like mono.

Remastering has its good and bad properties. Vinyl pressing is the same. Some old vinyl (Phil Manzanera K Scope sounds better on CD than the original vinyl. This was -partly due to a less than satisfactory mix IMHO and at the time the pressing unit was using thinner vinyl. It's always a matter Horses for courses with no precise measure to ensure what you are buying has the best sound. This also reflects your opinion and equipment. Its a rocky road to Nirvana(audio) |
There are 2 choices 1-spend some free time bin diving, and referencing pressing deadwax. Then be prepared to purchase either a winner or loser. If you get a loser, try again. 2- https://www.better-records.com/ Pretty simple. |
