garfish: have you had a chance to compare the newly remastered cd's to any of the vinyl issues? i'd be particulaly interested in learning how it compares to the mfsl pressing of "cosmo's factory" (which isn't among the greatest mofi's, IMO, but betters the original wax.)
Creedence Clearwater Revival CDs

All eight of the original CCR albums have been remastered using an (apparently) new high quality JVC process. According to the liner notes: "This album was mastered in analog using the 20-bit K2 Super Coding System. Developed by JVC, this system integrates three important digital audio functions: (1) Uses the JVC 128 times over-sampling high resolution analog to digital converter (2) Resolves the high resolution 20-bit signal to the 16-bit CD format while retaining thr integrity of low level information (3) Effectively eliminates time base jitter in the digital data stream. The end result is a CD of extra-ordinairily higher resolution than that of todays conventional CDs. The 20-bit Super coding system allows the listener to hear every subtle sonic nuance from the breathing of the muscians to the explosive crack of the snare drum. Enjoy." I requested the 8 CD set for Christmas and was so rewarded. So, how do they sound? See below. Craig
