NIN Pretty Hate Machine remaster

Just got it for $7.99 at Amazon. Pretty impressed by the mastering quality--very good job. It was apparently supervised by Reznor himself. I'd recommend it. Hope this helps.

its on its way to me...will post once i put it to work. very excited about this release!

Amazon delivered my remastered vinyl of PHM today. Overall a stellar effort, although the digital haze on the CD version of Head Like a Hole gave it a certain quality the remaster just doesn't have. The "quiet" songs, though, like Sanctified, Something I Can Never Have, and That's What I Get, are simply stunning. The bass is prodigious compared to the CD, and the separation of the instruments in the mix is much more distinct.

Well worth the money.

Remaster seems to be made much louder than 1989 release losing some dynamics. Good for ear buds and cars, bad for critical listening. I almost didn't get the new release but for $7 I had to order and will hear for myself and compare it to my 1989 disc. Here's a link to Audacity wave forms that demonstrate the big difference: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showpost.php?p=19518477&postcount=20
