I tried the stereo versions, severe left to right panning of that era is not to my liking, the SQ is great though. Abbey Road is still a fav.

The stereos sound great on the acoustic/mellow songs but are sonic overkill on the rockers while the monos sound a bit soft on the acoustic stuff but shine on the rockers. Going back and forth can yield very inconclusive results as the stereos are like drinking a very sugary drink and the monos are a light drink. When you hear the stereo then go directly to the mono the bass and upper frequency seem super weak but that is only due to them being very tweaked on the stereo cd. I like both but take them for what they are the stereo is the mastering team at |
