It does seem though that in the 70s we had mixes for some recordings with a
definite middle to top emphasis. I suspect this might well have been added
by the cutting engineer to overcome some of the problems of analogue systems
perceived at the time. This was why CDs made from the vinyl masters sounded
so toppy and bass light.



Can you really make such a sweeping statement without stating specific instances or carrying out level matched AB comparisons vinyl to CD?
