Performance: Sonics: |
Like the other reviews, I can't even stand to listen for more than a few minutes in multi. Harsh as hell, a real sonic disaster and just barely tolerable in 2 ch. It's a shame because Jar of Flies is one of my favorite CD's sonically too. Don't waste your money on this one.

This is the "Worst Ever" SACD...Un-listenable...I really like the band, these are great songs that have been totally screwed up - so very poorly done..!!! Yes - like the other reviewer mentioned - stick to your old CD's and run from this one..If only they just did this in a standard stereo setup - it would have been so much, much better...!!!

Ruined by horrendous mastering. I play this at -25db on my receiver. The version of Man in a Box on the Philips Total Immersion Compilation I can crank to -14db. Huge difference in volume. The Philips Comp does not sound harsh or loud.
This shows the problem was not the mixing. I think the Alice in Chains mixes are very good. These mixes were butchered during the mastering.
