Led Zep Reissue on vinyl


Anyone listen yet? I haven't committed to getting them yet and am curious to hear any impressions and opinions. Thanks

Originals in EX or better condition are the best, but pricey. Classic records reissues substantially worse sonically, but lower background tracking noise.
MFSL sounds very poor on nearly all of releases. Seems like sound from the barrel with boosted bass and trebble.
I'm with Dfel pretty much, but reality is quite simpler than that. I'm far away from being audiophile, but crazy meloman and collector where I'd always hunt for original releases anywhere I go or dig.

Page isn't alone and most of the artists create digital transfer out of the old tape. 30th Anniversary of Dark Side of the Moon had been pressed out of the hi-rez digital file and sounds as superior as ever. There's some of the advantages for sure.

Classic records releases have lower sound level transferred to pickup vs. originals and lots of audio information is simply LOST compared to originals obviously having the fact of old master tapes.

Creating a digital file normalizes the audio information substantially closer to the original recording of more than 40 years ago and therefore it's nowdays the right way to build reissues and remaster.

Good luck and happy tunes to those who ordered and waiting to hear!
Rockitman, and yet, still no klu why 30th anniversary 'Dark Side of the Moon' 'digitized' vinyl sounds to me as best vinyl recording i've ever heard so far.
had a spin of Lz I and was not impressed at all. cassette tape to my memories sounded a notch better.
How to ID 5 best sounding systems? Was it similar to American Idol auditions by jury or how to nominate?
one must realize these tapes already lost HALF of information after over 40 years. analogue mastering is simply no-go or no way for successful release-remaster and so any of further re-issues. classic records reissue to me is very 'down south'. today's releases are solid C vs. original US or UK releases. Mo-Fi sucks all the way on all of releases and all albums of LZ or it's just i don't like the way mo-fi sounds on almost all of records they've made.
