Problem is not with MoFi or DCC but rather with the masters quality, or in this case lack of quality. The original recordings of these tended to be 'dreck' and therefore do not transform into magic recordings. I own many MoFi remasters but of jazz artists who tended to make better master recordings. My John Coltrane/Johnny Hartman is unbelievable compared to the Redbook. Elton John's 'Tumbleweed Connection' is also quite good.
Any Opinion on DCC/MoFi CD Quality?
I really don't understand the DCC hype. I have owned most of the rock titles, and I find the sound to be extremely muddy with an over-emphasis on the drums. Was Steve Hoffman a drummer? MoFi aren't too much better. The new hybrids are great, but I'm hard-pressed to reccomend any other titles for the high price.
I cannot name one disc in either brand that I would reccomend a $25(plus) payment for.
I would refer to Pink Floyd's MoFi version of "The Wall" to rest my case. An absolute case of fraud.
