Huh. But why would that particular LP - and not any others before or after - sound that narrow?
Imaging question
Hey,
A friend gave me a copy of Big Country's LP "The Crossing". I'd heard "In a Big Country" on the radio many times but never the album. Anyhow, I dropped the needle on the first track - "In a Big Country" and was amazed at how narrow the soundstage was. Like, every instrument and vocal seemed to shmushed into a 4-foot wide corridor of sound, not even stretching out to where the speakers were.
What gives?It was just this album as I put on other LP's and they imaged wide and deep as usual. Is it a production artifact? Could it have been that pressing?
