SQ of "Rock of Ages" on CD

stuartk

stick with the 1st CD pressing as it is a flat transfer and closest to original Vinyl.

Most of these Classic albums do not fare well with remastering/remixing. 
 

Happy Listening!

Thanks for your input.

I haven't found that original mixes are uniformly more pleasing to my ears; it really depends on the record in question. 

And given R. Robertson"s opinion, I'm curious to hear the Academy of Music version.  I'll report back once I've heard it.

My pleasure.  I am looking forward in reading your impressions and thoughts on The Academy of Music version. I would be interested in learning more about the MoFi disc? Which tape or source used? How extensive DsD used?

Sidebar: I am enjoying the 50th anniversary edition of “Cahoots” CD. This is the standard edition, not the Super Deluxe package. Otherwise, I own 1st pressing CDs.

Happy Listening!

The 50th Anniversary Edition of Stage Fright sounded great to me on Qobuz.  A clear improvement, IMHO.
