It's no wonder we have a hard enough time getting our systems to sound live and musical, dealing with all the settings/variances between every single recording.
Who's with me?
I was just listening to a $2.00 record store find I purchased around 1 year ago. It so happened that the power was out while I was there, but by chance I purchased among others, Rush s/t lp. After I arrived back at the homestead, I realized it was a early pressing,(A1).
Fast forward to today. While listening and really enjoying this lp, I thought that wouldn't it be great if modern lps sounded this good!
No sign of compression, (Did we even know compression existed back then?) Dynamics in spades, soundstage: very, very good. Bass, yes!
So, what may I ask is lacking now? That is the quest we must all participate in. Doing our best to make record companies/labels realize that 'sound quality' equals record sales/satisfied customers. We all win!
