Classical Music-High Quality

if you go back to the opening page of the "audiophile forums" section of AudiogoN, you'll see a "search headlines" dialog box. you might wanna use that function before you begin a thread. HINT: your query ain't exactly unique. don't be scared off, though. everybody's got something to learn, else there'd be no reason for this site. good hunting. -kelly

Hmmm. It is easier to tell you what in general to nuy or avoid. Years back when I had just a typical Receiver and then Mid-fi setup Deutsche Grammophon (DG) CD's sounded the best. They also sound pretty good in a portable stereo at work. However, as I've gone upstream as far a equipment, DG sound more bloated like they have been run through an echo chamber or something. I've concluded they are mixing them to sound good on mid-fi and lower systems which may be more typical to Europe. I now find the British lables such as Decca/London and EMI sound the best now. They sound slightly thin in lessor systems to me, but now are great in my current better system. Telarc are pretty good also.
