True, impossible to overcome limitations on the original recording. Also, I have come across a Hoffman remaster that was strangely overcompressed - can't remember which is it now, but I remember being a bit surprised about it since it was atypical of Hoffman's work. I'll try to remember and find it if I can. Having said this, I am thankful for anyone willing to take a stand against current mastering techniques and in this way, Mr. Hoffman has done his job in producing some really good work for us to enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archimago's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2207 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98249
