Any U2 Fans Here?

I just picked up U2's "No Line On The Horizon" CD album after I got hooked to one particular track "Magnificent". Instead of turning up the volume and enjoying the music I find myself lowering down the volume and switched to some smooth jazz after less than 5 minutes of play. I didn't finish the rest of the songs on the CD. The quality of the recording is terrible. It is unfortunate good music is marred by poor quality recordings. Has anyone experienced this with the "No Line On The Horizon" album? Is there another version of high-quality recording that I may not be aware of?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Does the 7" vinyl version of this album sound better than the CD? I may be getting my first turntable if the record sounds substantially better than the compressed version of the CD. Thanks in advance.

Yes, I am a U2 fan. I am sorry to say that they do not have they have not always had the best recording track record. You are correct that the music is good but is impacted by poor recording at times.
