After so many raunchy sounding records, this one sounded like “butta”. People have complained on Amazon that it was cheap. You can also listen to the high resolution files here: I totally agree, the mono box set sounds amazing compared to the albums and cds I have already, especially Between the Buttons, Aftermath, Satanic, Beggars. Yes, it would be incredibly finicky, time consuming and a major effort, but given this particular bands influence on popular culture, I would argue it's worth it. The visualization would essentially be below. Thanks. All analog. The quality of the box and the booklet are top notch as well. Us young teenage Mods gathered round a Dansette or some such player. You compare Beatles Box with this one, but Beatles box is really from the original analog master tapes. I'm on the fence with this one. An all analog reissue set of the Stones, either at 33 or 45 rpm, I would pick up immediately. I have an original unboxed UK Decca and that tune rocks lots harder in mono -- both the bass and the piano are far higher up in the mix and overall it's significantly louder and more percussive. I prefer original US from 1969 and dsd 2003. Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing In The Shadow? If you are talking about new mono releases they are cut on a stereo cutting head so if you just sum the left and right you should be all set. I'll be getting Meddle next. That being said, the original sounds more alive to me. Thank you. I got the impression you were insulted as well. My counterfeit copy doesn't have the F at the end of each of the matrixes. While the original may not have the bass extension, I found myself more compelled with the performance via the original. Next the group returned to Olympic, which only had a four-track recorder. The originals include the monster “Satisfaction” as well as “The Last Time” and the flip side of that single, “Play With Fire” as well as “The Spider and the Fly” and the rave up “One More Try”. Even though it was a Frankenstein-like patch of “stuff”, for American kids it was really the beginning of their love affair with The Rolling Stones . Please tell us what about the new one you prefer? midrange on the remaster which at times makes the tambourine and upper registers of Jagger's vocal more prominent on the original. 2011 vinyl box, Decca unboxed originals, many others... Gotta say, to my ears & system ....the CD Box is fantastic. It is cheaper that's for sure. Stripey orange Decca paper bag and dark blue label with silver print. This is very few copies. I am not necessarily doubting that the new ones are more extended. And all you've been doing with all your posts is trying to undermine the validity of my opinion. I have a pretty sizeable collection of Stones stuff, including the DSD reissues. It had tunes left of off the American Aftermath and Between the Buttons plus three never before released tunes “Sitting on a Fence”,”Ride On Baby” and “My Girl”. In the case of this Rolling Stones box (and any other box set produced and mastered by one individual at one cutting facility), what you hear is the product of the original tape sound of course, but played back on a particular playback deck, through a particular set of electronics and then cut on a particular lathe through its electronics. So put it on in all it's flawed glory. Their full-sized FPF-1000 hybrid loudspeaker was reviewed by Kal Rubinson in Stereophile. The songwriting on this album was on another level entirely compared to previous efforts, especially “I Am Waiting” and “It’s Not Easy” and of course “Paint It Black”. That said, bass had to be seriously attenuated (“rolled off) and dynamics compressed on those early records so they wouldn’t skip on “kiddie phonographs” of the day. Get it right, though, and the soundstage and imaging snap right into place. And top end. Sing This All Together (See What Happens), You Can't Always Get What You Want [Single Version]. Even if the mastering source was a digital DSD file, you should only listen to the vinyl, cause the vinyl stage of mastering and pressing will encompass the entire suite and spectrum of vinyl distortions - and who'd want to be without that [see posts below]. However, I have wondered how the early UK LPs here compare with the pressings in my 1964-69 vinyl box, where of course they are also in mono. The Rolling Stones “answer” to Sgt. Very cool if you ask me. After what you think about sound and so on it's your buisness. Now for the others I already said my thought. Please reference this release: it is an unofficial, fake release from China. Thanks so much, Michael, for such a detailed and in depth review. Finally there is the double Stray Cats, which has early and alternative tunes plus singles versions of “Street Fighting Man” and “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” plus the Italian version of “As Tears Go By”, “I Wanna Be Your Man” written by The Beatles for The Stones, “Not Fade Away” (left off the UK first album) and other items of interest for Stones completists. I don't hear it. For those who don't know, Monsoon are planar-magnetic computer speakers with a sub. I can't listen to a poster. Not to mention that in most cases (yours may be different) you just can't set them up properly in the room for proper acoustics. Ditto LIB in mono, but again some tracks sound better to me in mono, but most are better in stereo. It was always there on the mix to be revealed or hidden”. That is, making sure the sound level was the same between tracks, the volume knob will most likely need to be adjusted between versions since the reissues are more dynamic so in turn don't sound as loud at the same volume level on any system. For me 12X5, Aftermath and Between the buttons sound's really better in mono, the first one and second are already in mono in 2003. First of all, the frequency balances are subtly different. I was tempted to buy the vinyl version but settled in the end for the CD box with the intention of getting some of the vinyl issues next year when they come out individually. The last couple of times I've had someone talking about digital vs. analog etc. They're even worse than full range ribbon speakers and Harry Pearson's audio dictum requiring the reproduction of soundstage depth and accurate imaging. You can create a setup from Radio Shack (which is what I did, though now I have a standalone mono cartridge). Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band. The reissue is flat and has much less life than the original. Sound is excellent, surpasses any stereo mixes I've heard. Thanks for your thoroughly researched, enjoyable review. It was issued in January of 1967 in the UK as the fifth album and in February as the seventh American album. And everything in between. A decent sound card and good speakers designed for near field listening CAN convey good sound. My UK original sounds more alive, more engaging than the reissue, it has better flow, though the reissue sounds "cleaner" and you can hear more into the mix (And chatting with Art Dudley about it, he had the same impression that I did about the LP reissue). Then came the third UK album also called Out of Our Heads but with a different cover that would be repeated in America as the cover of December’s Children (and Everybody’s). Certainly many computer speakers are relative crap, but the Monsoon model I have is, in the words of Larry David's character on Curb Your Enthusiasm, "pretty, pretty good".

I agree too. As I write this, the YouTube video you can watch and listen to below has attracted many comments and people seem to like the original of “Play With Fire” over the reissue. And I agree with most everything you say. Which is why when EMI reissued the American records on a CD box set, the producers found the sound of the tapes so poor, they were compelled to re-assemble the tracks using the digital masters produced for the Beatles’ stereo CD box set. “Who’s Been Sleeping Here” brings out the Bob Dylan in Mick Jagger.
