couw Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 actually, there is no single thread that wraps it all up. Discussion was taken to this board from Board Krypton and continued midway. There are tons of notes scattered throughout threads and forums on the sound quality of this and that JRVG. Basically, the early batches had inconsistent sound, some were fine, others sounded like AM radio. The first few batches of domestic RVGs had different mastering than their japanese counterparts. Later on they used the same masters and sounded much more consistent. The only reason to prefer JRVGs these days is because of the mini-LP cover art. Overall, (J)RVGs are loud and tend to be compressed, which for some means it's fatiguing to listen to them. Others think it's all fine and dandy. ancient thread here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Overall, (J)RVGs are loud and tend to be compressed, which for some means it's fatiguing to listen to them. A descriptive term that pops-up with amazing frequency on many boards..........sounds fancier than 'tiring' but actually means what? You start to twitch? Feel exhausted and in need of a Red Bull after 3 tracks? You get cranky and yell at your wife? what? Chewy wants to know!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
