MOODY BLUES CD'S


I am looking to purchase 2 cd's byt he Moody Blues, Question of Balance and To Our Children's Children. I went to CD Universe website and they offer both each in three versions as follows:

1. remastered $8.19
2. Import $25.00
3. Japaneese Pressing $35.00

I called customer service asking about the sound quality.
In short, is the $25.00 ro $35.00 sound any better than the $8.00. The customer service person said she had no idea, except that some customers prefer the imports.
But she couldn't advise as to quiter services, better sound
etc. Can anybody offer my any guidance as to which of the
above sound better. PErsonal experience would be prefferred. Thank you.

The best are those from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs. I have a couple of remasters but they hold nothing to the MOFI releases. I do have an import "Made in Germany" of their release titled "Seventh Sojourn" but it's no better than the original version. Now comparing the import to that of MOFI! The import has nothing on the gold disc. If you haven't heard these I suggest you do so!!! Very, very good!
The remasters sound just as good as the imports. I mean for the money they want for the japanese import you could pick up the mofi's on ebay.
I third the MoFi's - you can't go wrong. These are the BEST versions on CD and I have compared them all including the 2 released in DTS.
The MoFi with the Gainn 2 remastering is a wonderful CD. I found the vocals very realistic, the bass deep & tight, the highs seemed a bit muffled, but if you only have the regular recording to judge it you might get this impression. I have the Moody Blues on 4 track and nothing sounded better to me.
The first five MB albums, including the one's you are looking for, are being released as deluxe edition multi-layered SACDs in the UK and Europe on March 20. I order them on Amazon.UK for $18 - $22 (including shipping). The difference in price reflects the fact that some have 2nd disks with outtakes, BBC radio, and other live versions. If you do SACD and have a good player, my guess is these will be great (although obviously that's just a guess until someone hears them). I've been pretty impressed with the remastering on most of these deluxe editions deals, so I have high hopes for the Redbook parts of these too.
