well, don't expect not to hear hiss..... you see, theoretically, the original master tapes hold the best recording.... you can't really "extract" more information than originally recorded. it's not logically possible. but of course, there is only one set of master tapes.... and most consumers do not own proper equipment to play them anyway, even if it were possible to make exact copies of them.
so.... as we "remaster" these old recordings, we should be trying to make them sound as good as possible on the playback medium. we can try to reduce this hiss, but by doing so, you inevitably "take away" some of the original sound. there's only so much you can take away before you start to hurt the sound of the record.
...there's a reason why everyone's going digital now. digital is superior to analog in many areas... and one area is a much lower noise floor, and thus larger dynamic range. ...remastering to digital makes such a discrepancy much more audible; you can now hear all the "problems" in the original master tape. ..........and if you think about it, remastering to an even higher-fidelity medium such as DVD-A results in even more audibility of "problems."
...well, anyway... that's what i think...
