The new remasters have been compressed, making them louder and less dynamic than the original LPs and CDs.

"Our new record, The Smiths, is a signal post in music! Good enough for Morrissey back then on the original vinyl. Good enough and still the best right now! The original always is.

There's a lot of issues with the original production. However it is what it is, I think all told the RT releases may have been the best. The consensus I'm getting from people is that these releases sound great in many ways, but have a slight compression which is a problem for some.

Yep. Adding bass AND compression makes for a thumpy, club-like sound that doesn't work here (or with the Beatles stereo remasters, for that matter.)
