But compared to CD's, the DOL pressings still sound clearly superior when comparing them so something else has to be going on here that most are not privy to regarding the digital sourcing they are getting.

I can’t afford too many OG jazz pressings, so early on I picked up a few DOLs of classic ’50s releases. Yes, they played well but when I compared them to ’60s, ’70s, even ’80s reissues, the DOLs seemed lifeless and flat. I sold them all back to the local used shop and haven’t looked back.
