Since I'm considering purchasing some of the remastered Beatles LPs, I was wondering if anyone had a chance to compare two or more of the same LPs? What used to happen back in my old vinyl days is that each and every LP, even the ones from the same manufacturer/same batch, used to sound different. Some slight differences in the way the LPs were pressed, or handled, or packaged etc., contributed to the variation in the sound quality. I guess the technology was immature back in the day, coupled with shoddy quality assurance etc.
I wonder if the same consideration holds true for the modern pressings, or if the technology had advanced to the point where there is much more reliability in terms of the quality assurance? Just FYI, I haven't been buying LPs since more than 10 years ago, and even then I was mostly buying used copies at $2.00 - $3.00 a pop. To shell $20.00+ for the fresh pressings today seems like a bit of a rip off to me, so I wanna make sure I'm not wasting my money. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ heisenberg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98603 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
