Re: Abbey Road
I didn't like anything about it. It just sounds wrong to me on so many levels. The life and flow of the EMI Parlaphone LP has been removed from the remastered digital version. I scratch my head when I read comments about how the bass is better on the remix and how the drums sound "better" or "more real." The anvil strikes on the Qobuz 24/96 version of Maxwell's Silver Hammer are a joke compared to the EMI/Parlaphone LP.
I bought the original Beatles CDs when they first came out. I bought the remastered 2009 mono and stereo CD collections when they came out. I have the limited edition green apple that contains 24/44.1 flac files on a USB stick I bought when it first came out. There is really nothing special about any of them. I didn't fall for buying the LP collection that was cut from the digital files that I already owned. No Beatle digital files that I have heard makes me want to play them instead of my BC-13 LP collection.
I honestly was concerned that something was amiss with my digital front end when I was streaming the 24/96 version of Abbey Road last night. After I suffered through Abbey Road, I switched over to an album that I know sounds great on my digital rig to do a sanity check. I played the Qobuz version of The Poll Winners Ride Again! It sounded great like it always does so that allayed any fears that digital gremlins had invaded my digital front end.Micro Seiki SX-8000 air bearing table, SME 312s arm, SME 3012R arn, Dynavector XV-1s cartridge, Lyra Etna SL cartridge, ARC Ref 3 phono stage, Otari MX-55 2 track R2R, Ampex 350 tape repros, Roon Nucleus Plus music server, HiFi Rose 150B DAC, ARC Ref 6, ARC Ref 75 with KT-150s, Parasound JC5 amp , JBL 4345 speakers, Viero Equilibro Level 3 speaker cables, and Definitive Technology Ref subs.

I thought that’s what I heard! And I thought Mike was due a pest control visit!
I really liked the UK pressing above anything else that afternoon. Some of the low bass

Re: Abbey Road
Qobuz popped this album as a suggestion so I played it. I like it alot. Sure there are reasons to trash anything, but I like it. It's a bit of a new take on an old hat. It's a little different but not in a bad way. They let the grit in Paul and John's voices come through. The instruments are more solid. It's not as sparkling but it's got good drive. The studio cuts are great. You can hear the warts they needed to polish out. I can see how the original was right for the time. A little more jangle and fun. This one is more for today. Were more accustomed to beat bass and vocal prominence on top now. I think the new fits 2019.

Re: Abbey Road
I had the benefit of hearing Abbey Road at Mike Lavignes with source variations from different periods that included the new Qobuz, a download from the last remaster, an original pressing version, the new pressing release and finally the tape. I am not sure the origin of the original and tape.
Qobuz was great coming off the MSB. The beauty of AR was enhanced on vinyl and tape.
Like Rex, I really liked the new version which did include new sound dubs at least on Come Together and suspect more. Is that messing with the old version with John and George now gone and not knowing what control Paul and Ringo initiated, IDK.
In the end, I’m on the fence between the new release and the original and would have to spend critical time listening - I was mainly interested in the spirit of things, that even included sipping of some nice Scotch.

Re: Abbey Road
Cheryal and I hosted The Central Coast Audio Club meeting/get together yesterday. I was talking to Jon (from Stereophile) about the Abbey Road album. He is absolutely thrilled about the new high resolution mix. He was pointing out some of the things that were done, such as on certain tracks the guitars were previously all in the middle but now they separated them, one on the left, one in the center, one of the right, as a small example. He stated that this album is begging to be played loud. He feels it is the best Beatles mix ever!

Re: Abbey Road
Where are the Reel To Reel tapes coming from. I don't see any listed for sale? Yet, people seem to have them and they sound great??????? I could see that if they were safety masters or made for production. I don't see it so much if they are a copy of a record.

Re: Abbey Road
next time we get together i will teach you the secret handshake.
mostly (i'm guessing) the grey market tapes of iconic Rock era titles are dubs of safety masters sent to markets around the world for local pressings back in the day, that somehow found their way into the hands of some ner-do-well with a vision of what could be. or maybe a dub is made from a low gen safety when the rights holder turned their back. is it possible that they are dubs of vinyl or digital sourced? sure to both.......so.......what i do is.....
in each case what i do is compare them to the best vinyl i can find on my big rig. if they are clearly better then they pass muster and i buy them. no way to ever get any clear provenance on these. the proof is in the hearing. so the tapes simply have to be better than the vinyl.....assuming i like the vinyl. i've put considerable effort in having better sounding pressings of my favorite music. so i feel good about my process. i do notice as my vinyl front end gets better over these recent years that tapes that were superior in the past sometimes get passed by the vinyl. that is only logical.
some years ago one of my grey market tape suppliers multiple times brought collections of tapes he had purchased over to my place for me to compare to my vinyl for him to gauge whether they we good enough for him to sell, or sell copies. he might have 20 tapes and 25 or 30% were very good. others all over the board. he knew classical but not pop/rock, so i had to help him to know what music was valuable as well as the sonics. i enjoyed that process. some real gems.
it's work to assemble a tape collection, especially if you go after the better titles. you can't just buy them.
it's up to me to protect myself in terms of grey market dubs.my system on Audiogon; https://www.audiogon.com/systems/615

Re: Abbey Road
Hey Mile L, A little off topic, but what have you done with your vinyl of late that gets it to the final frontier. Do you have Joel's new tone arm?

Re: Abbey Road
Not a Beatles fan, but giving it a whirl on Amazon, not bad!
Of course I lack the imagination required to know exactly what an electronic/studio recording like this is supposed to sound like in absolute terms, so I'm just enjoying the music. Dashing all hope of ever being an audiophile I guess.

Re: Abbey Road
Rex, don't want to get too off topic so i'll try to be brief.
there has been a few changes over the last 4-5 months which have boosted my vinyl playback performance.
(1) yes, I did add the fabulous new Durand Tosca, a gimbal bearing tone arm. in addition (2) I've added a new turntable, the 250 pound, solid slate (slate with an 'L', not state), Saskia model two idler. it was built in 2016 (I'm the second owner) and came with 7 arm boards. I also have added 2 new cartridges; (3) the Ortofon MC Anna Diamond (see Fremer review), and (4) the vdH Colibri Koa wood Master Signature 1.1mv. Lastly, (5) I added one more Taiko Tana active shelf unit which allowed me to have an active shelf under each mono block dart amp, under my darTZeel preamp (includes my 2 phono's), my MSB Select II dac, and my NVS tt. so the whole signal path has Taiko Tana active resonance control. this seems to have broken some sort of code in terms of musical nuance and focus.
so the vinyl has really gone to a new level. I'm having fun.
I had spent the previous 2-3 years sorting out the digital, ending up with the MSB Select II and the SGM Extreme server, and then adding a third Studer A-820 RTR deck for dubbing. it was time to push the vinyl a bit. I'm getting to the end of that part now.my system on Audiogon; https://www.audiogon.com/systems/615

Re: Abbey Road
Wow. Still a little off topic but in sync with your comments. Really needs its own thread. I was having some fatigue issues when I turned up the volume. I new my crossover was shaking violently on the open baffle frame. A month ago I put it on a steel tube connected to the incredibly dense stand the speakers sit on. This reduced the vibration by maybe 85%. It was a substantial improvement. The fatigue dropped out until I am maybe 7.5 to 9 db higher in volume. At that volume I feel the crossover starting to vibrate pretry noticeably again. Point being, proper isolation is undervalued by many as it can really affect performance. When done right, it's not so much a tangible noise reduction. More a calm and relaxation that comes over the music. A lot less fatigue.
That may be partly why I like this album so much. I am able to turn it up more and really get the juices running on the songs.

Re: Abbey Road
Hi AJ....It some cases this might be so but not in this case. There are some things a prefer in the new version. For example on Here Comes The Sun I love that George Harrison’s voice is centered and not coming hard right. I also like that some of the music is a bit more up front an cleaner. That being said the original sounds more natural and more realistic to me. On Maxwells Silver Hammer the anvil strike is dull and buried on the new version. it’s loud and clean (more realistic) on the original. There are similar examples as well.
I’m sure on occasion I’ll reach for the new 50th anniversary copy just because it sounds different but my preference will be the original U.K.
Hmmmm.....maybe you are right maybe I prefer the original because I’m more familiar with it.
All that being said the The Beatles Abbey Road 50 Anniversary reissue is a terrific reissue.Paul

Re: Abbey Road
Gotcha. Interesting about the vocal placement and how pronounced anvil is. I swear sometimes they remix just to be different.
Also a reminder of how artificially "constructed" stereo is! Some folks talk about it like it has magical properties.
Agree with the last part. As I noted in original post, not a Beatles fan, but my toes were tapping to a couple tracks. IOW, I was enjoying the music.
cheers,
AJ

Re: Abbey Road
Finally found the time to listen to the 50th anniversary edition.
I really like the multi-channel mix.
It makes me hear things I hadn't noticed before - in my 2009 stereo remaster.
I have yet to listen to the new stereo version.
And no, I haven't heard the LP.Vivid Audio - Burmester - Hegel - Marantz - Oppo - Pioneer 60" - Wireworld
