Hey guys just wondering about the sound compared to original CD. Anybody bought this? Know all about the SHM-SACD but 30+ dollars for a regular CD am leery on the quality of the recording.

thanks guys
Ivan

    Thanks Rick,
    The one thing i really need to know is do they remaster or anything like mobile fidelity? I bought this on redbook and it sucked for musicality. I really do not want a expensive CD with the same bad recording. I also had this on LP and it sounded great but it lost something in the translation to CD

    Like all LPs, CDs, SHM-CDs, SHM-SACDs - the final result will primarily be driven by how the remastering was done (source tapes, Eq, compression, etc).

    I do have some SHM-CDs and compared them to the standard copies I have. Some are better, some aren't.

    For the title in question - I'd go search over on the Steve Hoffman forums for opinions - lots of reviews and posts of waveform samples, DR graphs for all sorts of specific releases.

    It can get as anal as you want.....:eek:

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    Erik if you have some links you could share it would be AWsome. I googled SH fourms 6 different ways and came up with WAY TOO much to wade through couldn't find anything for the Cinderella night songs.

    Sorry, I have nothing specific. While I know the band Cinderella and liked some of their tunes, I haven't followed any SH forum threads on that.
