No one has heard Pablo Honey or The Bends properly remastered. Insane this hasn't happened yet. OK Computer was remastered in 2017 and everything after that including Kid A is perfectly mastered and doesn't need to be redone. Just insane no one has once heard 'Creep' or 'High and Dry' with the modern amount of bass in it. |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:03 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) Interestingly The Downward Spiral was remixed in quadrophonic. If you get the Deluxe edition it contains the original CD version and then a second data layer that can be be played back by some special hi-fi player. I've never personally listened to anything in 4 channel quadrophonic. I did recently listen to this album and at no point did my brain think that it needed to be remastered. It sounds fine imo but I can pull it up in perfectly listening conditions just to be sure.
Aja definitely has been remastered. It has to have. |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:13 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) Edit: I didn't notice it but you're right about TDS. Not enough low end. Drums don't hit hard enough. It's overall a great mix so it's not totally noticeable but it could be improved. It's nowhere near as bad as the original CD version of Mellon Collie which came out a year later and is noticeably worse.
I don't know why they haven't done TDS. The remaster of Pretty Hate Machine is infinitely better than the original. |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:19 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) Closer somehow sounds perfect though. But I agree overall it should be done. Hurt sounds very thin. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833108&forum_id=2),#49659730) |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:10 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) agree with Bonded by Blood. Funny thing is it sounds huge but ya lacking in bass and vocal clarity. I would be for this. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833108&forum_id=2),#49659708) |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:29 PM Author: average/ordinary/typical citizen/person Majority do Third Eye Blinds debut album was remastered in 2006 but it should be again imo (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833108&forum_id=2),#49659746) |
|
Date: February 9th, 2026 11:33 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) Interesting take. Never noticed anything wrong with this but I just put it on and I could see it being improved.
It's funny so many autists talk about dynamic range like this prized thing and they're listening to the oldest shittiest versions of things. I actually prefer less dynamic range. It's a rock song, not classical. It should hit you over the head. All the people who pushed the Loudness Wars were right. I think total vindication.
Edit: it looks like 3eb's songs were remastered in 2006 for "A Collection." Those sound way better than the mix on their debut record. But I don't see where they did the whole album. |

Date: February 9th, 2026 11:44 PM Author: Njigba, please! (ACG) I wonder if they can use AI to enhance it. If so it would be pretty cool to hear improved versions of old recordings that are hard to hear. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5833108&forum_id=2),#49659759) |
