The original tapes were transfered flat to 24/192... BUT... the mastered versions (EQ'd and level adjusted) were printed back to 24/44.1. That means the highest resolution that the approved mastered versions exist in is 24/44.1. Please let your ensuing review reflect that.
Beatles Vinyl Remastered, Finally Coming, Shipping Mid-November
The first hold-ups were due to finding a pressing plant that could consistently produce the level of quiet demanded by the producers. Then came issues related to the full-sized book that will be included in the box.
While many of us had hoped for an AAA release, that was simply not possible. My contact at EMI in the UK told me how difficult it was getting the estates of John (Yoko) and George (Olivia) plus Paul and Ringo to sign off on the 192/24 bit masters produced for the CD reissues.
Issuing the vinyl from the original tapes would require them to audition test pressings and sign off again, which would have been even more difficult that okaying CDs. Besides, I was told, everyone felt important consistency within the catalog.
So the box was mastered to lacquers at Abbey Road using the original 192k/24 bit files. Clearly these will sound far superior to the CD versions, just as the 44.1K/24 bit Apple USB "dongle" version sounded better than the CD.
No doubt the set will eventually be issued on Blu-ray at 192/24 bit and perhaps it will also be available as a full rez Internet download but nothing can replace the vinyl experience, physically and sonically given that Abbey Road's D/A converters are probably far superior to what most of us have at home—if we even have D/A converters in our systems (some vinyl purists do not).
Will a mono box set follow? That is not certain yet, but it will probably depend upon the success of the stereo box and sales of individual titles that will be issued at the same time.
And a splendid time is guaranteed for all!

Cellulite is simply trapped
Submitted by Jessica on Mon, 2013-05-20 08:57.
Cellulite is simply trapped fat globules within the top layer of skin. If this develops, this doesn't propose an important threat to your wellbeing, but you can get mental frustration as well as a low self-esteem. The thighs are among the most frequent areas for cellulite to look, and rid it from your body completely just isn't likely. That being said, it is possible to take strides in reducing cellulite's appearance by doing thigh exercises.

Is this about to be a mistake?
Submitted by Jim Tavegia on Fri, 2012-09-21 01:44.
I fear another money grab coming. It is rediculous that the Masters from remasters from the CDs from a few years ago are not being used. We were told they were "remastered maticulously". Why is there always someone around who thinks they know better.
I'm probably not falling for this as much as I'd love some of the remasters on vinyl. And of course the mono's will be next.
Hopefully the offer them as
Submitted by wgb113 on Fri, 2012-09-21 02:10.
Hopefully the offer them as individual albums. After buying both CD box sets I'd have preferred all of the Mono releases up until Yellow Submarine.
The hi-rez (Mono) downloads are long overdue as well.

Yes..they will be available
Submitted by mauidj on Fri, 2012-09-21 03:06.
Yes..they will be available individually for $23 each. A total saving of about $100 over the set! I believe the box will include a book and DVD.
I want Money!
Submitted by mauidj on Fri, 2012-09-21 03:02.
Yep that's what they want!
Sad that we are already hearing excuses rather than plaudits!
BUT...how am I NOT going to buy these...damn it ;-)
Just out of interest...is the box set (which costs about $100 more than buying individually) going to be a true limited edition or is it worth waiting for the price to come down as it did for the Mono CD set?
Keeping an open mind...
Submitted by Martin on Fri, 2012-09-21 03:10.
Will be interesting to hear them, if they are really pressed from 192/24 they must sound wonderful.
44.1/24 rather less so.
I'm not sure how many people with original parlaphones will be in the market for them though.
Now AAA, pressed to 45 rpm vinyl, that would be something.
I cant wait .
Submitted by curtiswhite on Fri, 2012-09-21 03:17.
I cant wait for this. Hopefully this wont be out of my price range. I do have all of the original lps but all were warped during hurricane Katrina.

My BC-13 set sounds fine to me. I think I'll stick with that. If a mono set is announced, I might be more enticed.
test pressings
Submitted by deckeda on Fri, 2012-09-21 17:32.
So, the families don't need to OK test pressings when made from re-EQ'd digital copies, but they would need to OK test pressings when made from unaltered analog originals. Why? If anything I'd think it'd be the converse.
EMI never delivers enough. You pick the medium or version and there's perpetually a better version still in the vault. They don't want to sell what they have, they want to hoard it for "later." As is their right. And mine is to take a pass.
It's true that LPs from 24/192 copies or hi res downloads would go a long way to making everyone happy but how can you trust a company that on the one says "sourced from the original analog masters" and then "explains" it's actually sourced from a digital copy?
Smafdy Assmilk's assertion has merit and I'd be surprised if the new LPs sounded much different than the USB flash drive.
Well this is very interesting
