DecayToDeath Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I like the variants we got, honestly it had been so long that I'd forgotten what the mockup was and just assumed it was aubergine & ice. 13 hours ago, Seanbo said: Is it much of a difference in sound cut at 45 compared to the 33.3 6 hours ago, rcafilm said: Yes, the difference is massive. These are some of the best sounding records I own. Detail, dynamic range, and presence are all far above their 33 counterparts. Echoing this sentiment--part of the reason I've been doing rips on all these is because they're so drastically improved. The AB reissue a few years ago for the anniversary tour (1LP) was confirmed to use a CD master as source material, so based on how different each 1LP and 2LP has sounded to my ears, I've been running on the assumption most of the 1LPs (at least the older albums) use CD masters slightly modified for the medium and the 2LPs are dedicated remasters with higher dynamic range from whatever best source is available.

I remember getting the AB and CFUTF a few years back. When I listen to them I thought AB sounded amazing and CFUTF sounded muddled or compressed. Major difference to my ears. I recently picked up the 45 AB but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. I'm really hoping for a killer sounding CFUTF Edited January 26 by Seanbo I'm a dumbass that can't spell and voice to text sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bass is insane, I remember being absolutely blown away by the low end in January 1979 the first time I spun it, and I'm not a big bass person.

danmpie7 Posted January 26 Author Share Posted January 26 I just got an ALMOST complete sonos system (Need to get the Amp still) setup and I can not wait to start spinning these again with a much better audio quality that I have had.

Enjoy man, my whole house is Sonos and while yes, I know it certainly isn't the end-all-be-all for fidelity, I love the ease of use and ecosystem.

Seanbo Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Just got my Ten Stories 45 order and my Catch For Us The Foxes 45 preorder on the same day. I had been expecting Ten Stories due to shipping info emails. I was surprised to receive CFUTF as I had received no email communication on that order. Man I love Mewithoutyou, not so much the in-house order fulfillment. It's been hit and miss over the years. At least it wasn't as bad as the self titled collectors fiasco.

I still need to go back and figure out which one was worse, the Untitled Collectors Fiasco or Pale Horses. I recall that one taking like a year, then they shipped most people (myself included) two copies of Side A/B. So they sent a care package with Side C/D, and a piece of paper that had the correct Dorothy lyrics on it. You were supposed to glue that down over the misprint, but I found it funnier to not replace it. All in, took about 1.5 years to get a correctly packaged copy.

Shelby Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I want to replace my Pale Horses Deluxe far more than Untitled so Pale Horses wins biggest fiasco. Not to mention the actual variant color is so bad. Untitled is the nicest box in my collection and it was only $60 they could have taken all the time in the world and I'd still be fine with it.
