Edited 3 months agoI have this pressing and agree with the others that its a tad muddy on the bass and drums. I also have the probe 1st press and the ABC black label 2nd press. Both are a bit ragged on the high end (particularly the probe pressing) and suspect ABC maybe overcompensated on this one? I find increasing the treble on my amp an extra 25% fixes the problem. Sounds pretty good imo. -
A bit of the blanket over the speakers on some of the tracks. It's not horrible, but when playing in the Dan sandbox, you expect the cleanest sand. It's a great album, so do feel it's okay to be picky about the pressing.
