Although I love what engineers did with channel separation tricks on recordings from the 70's, the vast majority of recordings from that era lack the resolution levels present in later and better recordings of today. Digital remastering of an old recording can increase resolution and give you the impression of better sound quality. It can also inaccurately color the sound of the recording if the engineer isn't careful. I've found the 1028be to be very accurate to my ears and will always accurately transmit the signal that's fed into them. Regardless of the age of the recording, if the recording sucks, so will the sound projected from an accurate speaker.
