Since the "saturated dub bass sound" is basically just redline analog distortion, I can see how that wouldn't translate to digital very well!

Interesting article on how cds are remastered loud/bright for cd instead of how the original LP might have been done:

Steve Hoffman does a lot of the vinyl and DVD-A mastering for Warner Brothers' http://becausesoundmatters.com/

classic, fan vs. audiophile battle

Hoffman also runs avery informative/fierce forum:

For subtlety you can't beat vinyl on a decent turntable

Just one more reason NOT to buy CD's . . .

. . . I mean there's so many obvious reasons why CD sales are falling, aren't there?

Always harping on it, but isn't "the loudness war" just more evidence that CD's are "a buggy whip business in the age of automobiles"?

Remastering Led Zep for the third time "but LOUDER" . . . talk about an industry with no new ideas!!

Here is the place that did really nice 200g Zep vinyl remasters a few years back: http://www.classicrecs.com/ now OOP

The Hendrix(mono), Who, Dylan, Neil Young are all very nice.
