Naimfan,
Interesting observations.
The Rockport seperated instruments better in space. That implies superior reproduction of the time domain. Perhaps due to better speed stability?
The Goldmund seperated instruments better in timbre or tonality. That implies superior reproduction of the mix of frequencies that gives each instrument its unique voice. Perhaps due to better control of the spurious resonances that can muddy clean stylus tracing?
All speculation on my part, since I haven't heard either table. But maybe useful to D.H., who's also trying to audition these tables without actually being able to hear them.
