In Reply to: SACD vs. Vinyl - could mastering be the culprit? posted by tv69 on March 11, 2003 at 06:12:08:
>>>Look at the Stones re-issues on SACD/CD, Bob Ludwig (and ABKCO) went through painstaking means to try and master the new releases to match the best vinyl that could be found. In doing this, Ludwig EQed the SACDs to sound the same as the best vinyl they were able to find.<<<Why? If you want the vinyl "sound", get vinyl. If you don't want the vinyl "sound", why should it be forced upon you? When you put that album on the "table" or that disc in the "tray", don't you want to get as close to the original master (first generation) as possible? Any medium is a compromise -- there are benefits and weaknesses. Why would someone want an SACD, DVD-A or cassete tape for that matter, to be a "copy" of a second generation medium? Wouldn't you want your selection to be as close a copy of the first generation medium as possible?
