Matthew Posted October 2, 2003 Report Posted October 2, 2003 I've heard rumors that the early Rolling Stones catalog is going to be remastered on 180gm lps (HEACK YEAH!), but I can find nothing on the web to confirm this. Does anyone know about this, where a site is for more information? This sounds great since I keep hearing the the ABKCO lps were not too good, being digital recordings. It would be great if they came out in a box set like the new AC/DC lp set that's available. Any help on this would bring a big smile to my face. Quote
Sundog Posted October 2, 2003 Report Posted October 2, 2003 Music Direct sent me an email indicating that they were available for preorder. Unfortunately I can't access my email at the moment. Check out amusicdirect.com they may have the details on their site. Quote
Matthew Posted October 2, 2003 Author Report Posted October 2, 2003 Thanks Sundog, but I can't seem to get detailed information about if it's a digital or analog remaster, which, to me, makes all the difference in the world. Quote

As well it should! When my email is up and running again, I will see if any details are mentioned. Quote
Matthew Posted October 15, 2003 Author Report Posted October 15, 2003 Well, to answer my own question, and in case anyone else is interested. The "Rolling Stones" lp are remastered using DSD masters. Thinking I might pass on these since DSD lp quality varies so much. Quote
wolff Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Beatles and Stones have never received proper re-issue treatment. I do like like the sound of recent(last 10 years) Stones releases. The AC/DC re-issue series is all analog if they do it for you. Quote
