    compared this to an original pressing, the remaster is definitely louder. The guitar and noisy part of the mix are brought up. The original is a touch quieter and more dynamic. The vocals and drums stand out a lot more and this quietness definitely lets track build up.

      After cleaning the vinyls and the stylus there are one or two pops left here and there but the difference with my original is beyond comparison. No background noise. The undersleeves were detached but otherwise it's a great box set.

        Great package. Awesome sound on the original album and the live discs are ferocious and incredibly entertaining.

            Does anybody knows how we can distinguish this box 2014 re-edition with the original 2007 box ? I see no data differences between the 2 discogs versions...:-(

              I think it sounds fantastic. Wonderful package altogether.

                Is it just me or is the audio quality on the remaster not so great?
