I have every Zeppelin release on original Vinyl and on the first batch of remaster or original CD releases. The only Zeppelin I do not own on LP or CD is In Through The Out Door. I never really liked it when it first came out, I was actually disappointed in it.
I just preordered it on Amazon to see how these new Page remasters are this time around, as the first ones did not impress me that much. If this one sounds as good as everyone claims the new remastered ones do then I might replace the others.

I always really like the song "In the Evening" from that one!2 ch- Polk CRS+ * Vincent SA-31MK Preamp * Vincent Sp-331 Amp * Marantz SA8005 SACD * Project Xperience Classic TT * Sumiko Blue Point #2 MC cartridge

Carouselambra is phenominal on In Through The Outdoor! Actually, the whole album is good, IMO. SOme claim "Hot Dog" is a weak song, but it's supposed be in irony, IMO.
Definately listen to Carouselambra, it's a top 10 Zeppelin song, (again IMO). I am hoping the sound quality is vastly improved (as III was) on this one; can't wait for it!
Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."![:\](https://forum.polkaudio.com/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

I may have an extra vinyl copy of In Through The Out Door, I'll have to look, but if I do you are welcome to it. I like the SQ of the new remasters, but I still prefer the original vinyl myself. Funny, I had the same impression of ITTOD when it first came out as you, I was not impressed and actually disappointed. But I have come around to really liking some of the songs the guys mention above. Plus, every Zep album had at least one killer blues song and I always liked I'm Gonna Crawl.
