Evster2012 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Nice to hear..maybe. I wonder if this isn't digital-to-analog, in which case that velvety sweetness won't translate over. Thanks for the news Rover my friend, but if the thing's digitally mastered, it's binary. That intangible essence that makes vinyl the way and the light cannot be etched into the wax.

Thanks for the news Rover my friend, but if the thing's digitally mastered, it's binary. That intangible essence that makes vinyl the way and the light cannot be etched into the wax. Know what I mean? I know that vinyl is the best way...... I thank God that the first Led Zeppelin LP that I ever owned or listened to was the incredible Robert Ludwig pressing of Led Zeppelin II. How fucking sweet that was, for my "virgin" 14 year old ears.... in 1969 ! ! But as to how these re-mastered discs will sound Evster2012..... I do not know. The compression and brick-walling trends in re-mastering are quite prevelant now. It is not clear yet as to what exact sources were used, analong, digital, or some of both, to create these discs.

It's hard to imagine anybody but the White Stripes mastering analog. I've got Elephant on vinyl. Lots of Happy in that wax! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about Dazed and Confused being split into two parts. On my original vinyl, the song is not split. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D&C split?!?!!!!!! ruins it for me...... maybe if they added the "8-track" channel click.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyrus Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 yeah, but D&C has to be split, doesn't it? LP's only hold about 25 minutes a side (I think) and the remastered D&C is just over 29 minutes, there's no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Hopper Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 It may also depend on what type of record player your using. I was not even aware that they make turntables that cost thousands of dollars. Who knew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
