New Grateful Dead Box set...Opinions?

Nice collection of essential material. Love the box set. Sounds great. Agree with the Dick Pick's comment but this is nice way to get back into the group.

I own it and think it is the best of any copy of these records in my collection, including a MoFi of American Beauty. A must buy for any serious Dead collector, regardless of how many other copies you have.

I got mine a few weeks ago. I haven't been very impressed with the sonics. American Beauty is much better on DVD-A.
The first two albums, Grateful Dead and Anthem of the Sun, seem a little dull and lifeless to me. Aoxomoxoa isn't much better. I haven't listened to Workinman's Dead yet.
Still, it's nice to have these on LP. I have Workingman's Dead and American Beauty on CD, too, and they're lackluster in that format.
Get the DVD-As of American Beauty and Workingman's Dead if you can. The box set is probably worth having since you can't get the first three albums in high resolution digital.

I gave Workingman's Dead and American Beauty a listen last night through Sennheiser 600s, an Antique Sound Labs headphone amp, and my Rega P3-24, with two different interconnects.
I may have to reverse my opinion a bit. WD was very good. AB was also good, though not quite as good as the DVD-A.
I'll have to try the other three albums again.
