| Are there any GOOD Dylan SACD remasters? Now you are just playing with words or terminology.I repeat remastering is the technique of going back to the original "master" or call it source tape if you like and using the latest technology to "improve" it.Obviously you've changed it it in so... | |
| Are there any GOOD Dylan SACD remasters? Pableson my understanding is that out of the source tapes (alternative takes and the individual tracks etc.)the artist decides what is going on the album and this set is worked on (usually to an incredible extent)and stored as the master tapes.Cle... | |
| Are there any GOOD Dylan SACD remasters? Pabelson I think you'll find you are wrong.Plenty of discs sound different due how to they've been remastered.Nick Drake's remaster series sound completely different due to how they've been mixed but the source tapes are the same.Does every versio... | |
| Are there any GOOD Dylan SACD remasters? My point was somebody mentioned different master tapes might have been used-which I doubt.As for Dylan on SACD the last two remasters his debut and TTTAAC weren't done in SACD only plain Redbook.I think we've very probably seen the last of Dylan o... | |
| Are there any GOOD Dylan SACD remasters? I don't think the masters are different although they've probably been eq'd again.This thread just shows how subjective audio quality is. | |

| Best Rock Drummers Ginger Baker goes nuts at being decribed as a Rock drummer!The best I've ever seen in the flesh is Mr Neil Peart.Bonham on the Zep DVD is untouchable. | |
| Thom Yorke's new CD I think this album is actually really really good.I really like the title track and Harrowdown Hill.Whilst electronic based it's actually surprisingly tuneful and melodic and more commercial than many of the tracks that Radiohead have done in the ... | |

| Ayre Integrated Amp vs. Ayre 5 Series Separates Just an observation my system is identical to yours albeit not e versions CX and AX7 but I do feel the 2.5's could easily benefit from more power. | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Nrchy probably a bit too soon to say about the wee man but he sure does like to eat and sleep and he enjoys his music so.....if he starts tampering with his pram we'll know for sure.Barb has dropped me a few kind e-mails and is just back from a sh... | |
| I think it is time to retire I think many Audiophiles should retire from talking about music they lost interest in it a long long time ago.:-) | |
| Best "album" of 2006 Sufjan Stevens was very high up my list of the best of 2005. | |
| Are the Beatles the reason why modern music exists Music of course isn't culture.It can be a massive part of Culture as The Beatles were or it can be absorbed into the culture in a way that is no longer obvious as Beethoven and Mozart are.Musically something can be actually be very important and v... |
