ABCKO Stones' SACD releases vs. MoFi Stones LP Set

I own both the MoFi lp set and many of the Stones SACDs. There is no question that the Mofi lps are some of the best pressings of the Stones catalog. They both have their strong points but I prefer the SACDs for sound quality. To my ears they are more detailed at the top and bottom ends and the mids are extended, just more musical to me.

I much prefer the Mofi Lp versions...no comparrison in my opinion. I'm not impressed at all with the ABCKO reissues...very dissapointing to me...at least the "Beggars Banquet", and "Let it Bleed" ABCKO versions...SACD or not.

the sacd's are bad news.

I have The Mobile Fidelity Stones Box as well as many of the new SACDs. I don't think the SACD version are bad news at all. In my system the SACDS as a rule, just sound better. I haven't listened to all the titles on SACD but the earlier ones are improved over the lps.

Don't get me wrong, I love the sound of the MoFi lps but like one of the posters said they do sound musical to me. I don't regret buying the SACDs at all and plan on buying more of the Stone catalog on SACD.

The original 2002 SACD titles are not bad at all.
