Another good alternative is the 2011 remixed and remastered version by Steven Wilson, the new "2011 40th Anniversary Release" from October 2011. It's of course much easier to find than the DCC-version and also sounds "dryer" (like the DCC-version) and it definitely sounds much better than the previous "normal" CD-versions. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: cover.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=12768| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- Soundman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Soundman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85882 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
