Title: 1990 Twofers Compared To 2001 Ones Post by: The Heartical Don on September 05, 2012, 12:33:33 AM Is there anyone here who owns both series, or at least did a close listening comparison of these?
I read several, sometimes conflicting verdicts, and am pretty curious on this. Tks in advance, THD.

The 2001 two-fers for the 1962-1969 catalog are very bright and kinda compressed. The albums after and including Sunflower are quieter and have better EQ.
