This sounds like an appropriate diet. The new one seems to be a bit more treacly than "far away trains" but maybe it's just longer. I have a hunch its mastered a bit strangely too, which might overemphasise the sweeps and sleigh bells. The effect I'm talking about is especially noticable on "Clear Day", about 4 minutes in. When I'm listening in my car, the midrange sounds like its overdriving my amps and fuzzing out, but other tracks and other CDs sound fine. -- Eric Sorenson - EXPLOSIVE Networking - http://explosive.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
