EIM features less bass and drums/ cymbals than LOCC – very apparent in STCFTHOTS – and vocals are lower in the mix. Conversely, the guitar and keyboards can be better heard on EIM, which I like on, say, the intro to Cymbaline and Richard’s workout in STCFTHOTS. The keyboard tone is less strident on EIM and I prefer it, but overall I’d probably just about give the nod to LOCC.

Roger’s spoken intro to AHM adds 1:30 to EIM, as the review says, with 48 seconds of this being music. One of those ‘You pays your money, you makes your choice’ comparisons.

Thanks for this thorough review.
