I know us audiophiles are always complaining about the recent remastering done on reissues ect...
I too would rather have most of the mid to late 80's cds before the remasters have taken their place. But every so often you do come across a soundman that does it right these days in remastering.
Can you name a couple of your favorite recent remasters that have come out lately that you thoroughly enjoy??
I myself like the recent Cat Stevens Remasters and the recent Pink Floyd "Echoes", especially the Syd Barrett tracks.
I listen at home with a VAC tube amp and I'm not very fond of most recent remasters(especially alot of the HDCDs) but every now and then a re-release comes out that sounds naturally right.

Joe,

I don't like to name names, but anything by Doug Sax can be trusted and one or two others. Everyone else has to be on a case by case basis for me!

Thanks.
But are there any particular new releases that you or anyone else give high praises in remastering for high end home units(Besides classical and jazz)??
