Why this matters for Dream Theater (2013):

Richard Chycki’s production is notably less compressed than modern metal standards. When you listen to the 16-bit CD version, the dynamic range (DR) score is decent but still mastered for loudness. The 24/96 FLAC mirrors the studio master’s dynamic envelope. The snare drum on “Enigma Machine” snaps with physical impact. The string section in “Illumination Theory” fans out across the stereo field. Mangini’s kick drum pedals reveal individual beater strikes, not a muddy thud.
