Sound Quality of Location Lost
Something I’ve noticed that is crucial for this album, is having a good system. Bluetooth, of course obviously just a phone speaker or something, stuff like that, it just doesn’t cut it. If you have decent speakers and/or headphones with a good source, you’re going to hear so much more. There’s a lot of meat on the bone that you just can’t hear if you’re listening with the “wrong” equipment. I’m not shaming anyone for not being an annoying audiophile or audio enthusiast like myself, it’s just something I’ve noticed is abnormally noticeable on this record. They’ve released it in hi res lossless and if you’re getting that true signal through good equipment you’re going to hear a lot that you’ve probably just not been able to hear otherwise. That’s one thing we can never question Ken about, his stuff is going to sound amazing. This also applies to a good TT with a good phono preamp, etc. Or the CD through a good transport to your dac and on through the amp/hp amp to speakers/headphones. A lot of albums that weren’t recorded, mixed and mastered well, albums that are too compressed etc will sound like shit regardless. But if Ken Andrews, Trent Reznor, guys like that were involved, it’s highly noticeable. Just take that into consideration if you will. I heard these songs through a Bluetooth speaker first, but after I listened through my system(s), I couldn’t believe how obvious this one was. Best wishes to Ken. I feel like he’s still in recovery from his back surgery. Much love to all, rock on 🤘🏼!!!
