Ahhh.
Well regarding the question of remastering:worth it or not, well..
whoever mentioned the fact that the dynamic range is shot to hell in general was correct,
however I must admit if I have a selection of CD's in the changer and some are remastered
I end up running to the stereo to turn it down when it hits a newer disc.
There should be a way to have the hardware control the levels automaticaly.
God knows the 'labels' won't try and have a "universal level" set for all CD's.
Mines louder than yours!?!?!?
I'm the one who should have the choice to turn it up if I want to.
I do enjoy a good remastering though, ie: the entire Chicago catalogue via Rhino.
Outstanding.
