Sound quality sounds vastly improved. I really hope I can get my hands on this before it sells out or the price skyrocket's. _________________Quote: That cold november day, he penned the perfect poem that changed the very fabric of existence. |

Yes, from what I've heard on Youtube, it sounds like the bass drums have been mixed way up and all the instruments have been spread out a lot more evenly. But Youtube is no substitute for hearing the real CDs. Erosion Of Humanity wrote: Why would you waste the $200 for this when you can buy most if not all of the remasters for around $10 each? Those individual albums on Amazon are 2007 remasters. The albums in this box set are listed as 2012 remasters/remixes, which indicates that something has changed since then. |

It's pretty darn spiffy, though I don't have much basis for comparison with other remasters. I could compare my earlier issue of A Night at the Opera, I guess. _________________John_Sunlight wrote: Gif logos are a rare and special thing.

I'm normally all for buying the newest and best releases with all the bonus tracks and all but this just seem kinda like a cash grab to me that's all. I mean how much more could they really have remastered the things that they didn't get the first time around?
