Yesterday i took out The DOORS remaster "The Future Starts Here"
http://www.amazon.com/Future-Starts-...0&sr=8-1-spell
I did a digi dub to MiniDisk and then auditioned on the Senn HD-580's.
its prolly one of the best remaster jobs that I've ever heard ...very dynamic, great highs/lows and I can finally understand all of Jim's lyrics ....they augmented the normal tracks with full sustains....(which are cut off on standard releases) , studio chatter and full intros.....wonderful stuff , BUT
it doesnt sound natural ....it sounds current..not like 60's recordings....sounds so different than what I'm used to hearing....its like watching a model T Ford doing 120 MPH...its a real treat but seems out of place...incongruent. :crying:
Anybody understand what I'm talking about ??? :dont-know:

I haven't heard that title, but I get what you're talking about. I experienced that a little bit with some of the selections on the Beatles CD remasters, Paul's bass on first listens, so pronounced, spooky.
Its fun hearing the different mastering on different pressings, vinyl is usually definitive for me, but some CD releases sound incredible (steve hoffman mastering, for example) when playback is through a good Digital/Analog unit (I have a couple of midfi units - Cambridge Audio DAC Magic and a Grant Fidelity Tube DAC), and it's nice to have choices. :applaud:
