Question for those with “Golden ears”, and a frustration! (The Loudness Wars)
And on a side note. Do any of you cherish a vintage audio piece of equipment?? I LOVE my SONY D-EJ1000 and D-EJ925 They both still work and look brand new, bought for $200.00 each, new in 1990? The BEST made Diskman’s SONY ever made. Both have optical line-outs. That’s pretty rare! And both are solid magnesium, the bodies are solid magnesium and aluminum, no plastic, except the blue background lit remotes. And so thin! I don’t listen to them very often, but they have a soft spot in my heart. Carefree HS days at the pool during summer, listening to: a lot of: Van Halen, Led Zep., Motley Crue, Pink Floyd, etc., on my Diskman. |
@savroof9849, I just wish that the U2’s Joshua Tree album, I’m not joking, sounded as good, cymbal crashes/drum wise, as the YouTube official video of “The Streets have no name”. Don’t understand that at all. Could a German CD copy of the CD album sound better?? This has sometimes puzzled me too on those occasions when the online one sounds better than my CD one. I put it down to different masterings used by various pressing plants. Mastering matters and sometimes the YouTuber may have uploaded a superior one. As for the Joshua Tree, well Daniel Lanois was known for that muddy sound. Some folks feel the same about his work with Dylan but I like it, and U2 must have wanted it too. It’s certainly a far cry from the ultra clean sterile work provided by Steve Lillywhite on their earlier LPs. Maybe the best version of JT is the mfsl one. I like it and it compares well with my brother’s original 87 UK LP. https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/u2-joshua-tree-mfsl-disc.110228/ |
