The frequencies are more than likely present on the Led Zeppelin source tapes. At best, they would've been called "noise hikes" when initial mixes of the songs were first being made in the studio during their respective recording times. This can also be a possible factor in giving some vinyl records unique and distinctive sound, but that's besides the point.Quote:

What you are seeing at (and past) that frequency is what's known as "AC bias", which regards how then-present noise and distortion on the analog tapes are removed from the sound recordings by use of applying inaudible signals on the audio, due to the magnetic playback of the tapes from their respective reel-to-reel recorders. It's especially present on the remasters because digital and firsthand copies of the master tapes were used for the project. So, the AC bias reaches enhanced limits of about 44.5kHz on the FLAC-HD files past the standard 29kHz of the actual unaltered tape to achieve the broadened dynamic range that we can all finally enjoy.
(Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed writing this lengthy reply.) :p
No, and HOW DARE YOU?! :p Mastered for iTunes (MFiT) is one of the leading causes of death in the digital music market. Why? The content is high quality, but low bitrate. Think about it for a second. In order for Apple to claim that their products can hold an approximate "X" amount of songs, and for iTunes Store to get those song purchases to your device as fast as possible, does anyone REALLY think that the music files they're downloading are of FLAC/FLAC-HD bitrate and quality, or at least lossless? They shouldn't. An audio download from iTunes comes lossy, not lossless. What you end up purchasing is something that has a lower fidelity, weaker sound quality, and a compressed dynamic range. Whether you're an audiophile like me, or just a regular person who wants to appreciate their music in its purest form, only use iTunes for music downloads as a last resort.Quote:

\m/ -_- \m/
UPDATE: As I suspected, the next reissues are slated for October 27 in the UK, and October 28 in the United States.
I've never been a huge zeppelin fan, but i'd be really curious to hear this...
