I prefer 192, myself, because I listen to a lot of jazz and baroque chamber music.BobGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405172215849046373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232479.post-34950048820684171632008-08-23T17:17:00.000-05:002008-08-23T17:17:00.000-05:00No. I have several remastered CDs and they all so...No. I have several remastered CDs and they all sound excellent. This is an engineering problem with that specific album. I don't know how it happens, but it does. I remember that the original CD release of "The Wall" sounded like crap. Way back in the 80s I picked up some audiophile catalog that focused on albums that had been re-released on CD, and that was one thing they talked about a lot. It was amazing how many albums they basically said, "Wait for another release, because this CD sounds worse than the record."<BR/><BR/>The Rush remasters are mind-blowingly spectacular, imo.AlanDPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00910363728370240226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6232479.post-82442461295558232102008-08-23T16:54:00.000-05:002008-08-23T16:54:00.000-05:00One of my favorite albums is ZZtop Tejas.

I have it on tape and the sound is very full and my ear can tune in to every bit of it.<BR/><BR/>I bought the CD and it sounds like it's being played through a pillow.<BR/>Muffled and dead. I wonder if they pull high and low range sounds out of the music when they remaster it?nonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07550167783969561280noreply@blogger.com
