Not all is gloom in the dynamic range midden. I've just been pulling
to pieces a bit of Led Zeppelin to compare a recent CD of LZ IV with
my original vinyl copy. I'm happy to be able to report that the new CD
has hugely *increased* dynamics over the vinyl, and there is no sign
of any mastering engineer making it loud.
It is so nice when the artists have the muscle to stay in charge.

Interestin, thanks. The Rock around the clock CD box RATCCD001 ... 010 seems
just like transferred - on the average 2.5 dB headroom - but alas with
digital noise reduction overdone. Ah well, mp3'in or wma'ing will take care
of those upper treble oddities. At the retail price it is OK, DKK 149 for
the box.
