James Levine, Boston Symphony and Tanglewood Festival Chorus played 3 weeks ago Brahms’s "German Requiem". It was one day Friday concert that I did not pay attention – the Brahms’s Requiem is not the work to which I have a warmth. I heard it once bef...

[quote user="Paul S"]Andy, I will say right away that I am not at all set up to "exploit" online music, but this comes across to me as "clean" and "noise free", with some nice spacial effects, basically devoid of harmonics, and not much in...

Here in Boston, we’re blessed with a number of very good classical FM radio stations. I had for a long time a Magnum Dynalab Etude tuner and quite regularly was listening “live” broadcasts and many other beauties of urban FM life. I had a few t...

[quote user="mem916"] I miss-understood. I did not realize you were able to play my file in "natural 96K". Since I am not able to play your file in "natural 88.2" I needed to make another recording before I can really compare yours to mine since my...

I feel that the correct objective of home music listening should be to reproduce as closely as possible what one can enjoy in a great concert hall with great musicians.Thus, I have been a advocate for surround processing for years. As stereo replaced...

Well, the DG Archiv had very few, or ever, “better moments” in term of recording quality. With Brandenburg Concertos on LP I have the same problem as you do. I have some recordings that I more or less like on LP but I never was comfortable with...
