Morph the Cat deheaded

Any one else notice that the vinyl copy of this album is seriously flawed. The low end is too bloated and the highs are missing in action. It sounds like Steve Hoffman mixed this using only headphones. It is a shame since this is a great album and would be even more fun if the mix was correct.

The DVDA and CD both sound much better, which is usually not the case.

I hate to complain about Steve Hoffman masterings, because he uses so much care and really does try to (and often does) get the original sound right, but I have noticed that a lot of his remasters tend to be a little darker-sounding than the originals (i.e., more tilted to the bass, less treble energy). Anyone else notice this?

Tvad, I'd revisit the system quality theory. :-) I have the Morph LP's and the DVD-A. The LP version is one of the best sounding recordings on vinyl EVER, if the music itself leaves something to one's desire. IMHO, it embarasses the DVD-A in comparison. I have had some issues with other Hoffman masters - but this ain't one of them by a LONG measure.
