Reissue 180 grms vs original issue


Dear all,

I was wondering if for example DECCA 2020 Argenta Espania is worth to pay up to 150 USD for a nm- issue or to buy the 180 grms reissue from Speakers Corner (DECCA)new.

What are your thoughts / experiences?

Cheers,

Patrickamory, it's clear you haven't heard the Espana reissue, however true (or not) your general comments are. And that was the original poster's question.
I suspect that some of these conflicting observations are due to system differences, not to mention taste. Some of the Classic Records reissues I have seem very bright, and my system is anything but, although very revealing. These same LPs played on a less than stellar system that errrors on the bright and thin side can sound unlistenable to me. I have always been interested in the variation in standards when visiting different rooms at CES, other dealers show rooms and the homes of customers and friends.
Well, in any case, either original or 180gr or 200gr reissue, they are much better than cd or sacd. Enjoy!
