Comment To say that I am happy about this is an understatement. After posting on the Metallica Forum that the 96kHz/24bit version of the album was not as dynamic as the MP3 version of the album for download they made a change. In speaking with the site admin they created two masters for the album. One master was a 96/24 which they used for the CD. The other master was a MFiT master which was 44.1/24. Metallica.com decided to change the High Resolution version for download to the more dynamic version of the album which is the MFiT version. Same applies to the Bonus Album as well. See thread on the Metallica Forum here. https://forums.metallica.com/t/hardwired-to-self-destruct-high-res-audio/7910/143 -The mastering "engineer' is called: Gentry Studer.
