I still disagree...

I cannot speak for any LP version nor the Greatest hits package since I have never owned them. The CDs and SACDs from the rest of the catalog are a different story.

Your complaints are the opposite of the impression myself and others have of these disks. If anything, the original CD version of "So", is often considered to be a bright sounding disk, hardly not rolled off. The SACD version is much more natural to my ears, but still not rolled off.

As a rule, PG recordings typically feature gobs of low bass, since his style includes a great deal of percussion and synths. The original CD version of Shock the Monkey from "Security" and the "Passion" disk , (which is the soundtrack from "The Last Temptation of Christ") were often used as reference material to judge bass performance. The is sub 50 hz information present and those passages (and many others), will provide a heavy duty workout for my Sunfire sub.

I stand by what I've said. PG works in general should in no way be considered low fidelity. Perhaps you have a bass management problem?
