I was always aware that the speed was off but the annoyance of wow and flutter has now come to light. I can handle something a bit slow or fast but shifting pitch is bothersome.
Kind of Wow and Flutter.
So, I'm listening to my 6 eyed copy of KOB and became increasingly bothered by obvious speed fluctuations and began looking at my tables belt as an issue. I check the speed stability and everything seemed fine. Went back to listen and it was still there.
I then tried my second table and again it was there. Can it be that both my tables have issues? I then decided to Google KOB Wow and Flutter and apparently this recording is known to have issues.
I can barely stand to listen to it, hearing the obvious problem. I've heard that there was a recent post production correction of this. Anyone know of what vinyl copy I can get that cleaned up this issue?

No my copies are not off centered. I thought I was going crazy and ruled our everything in my system, which is why I google it and I came across Steve Stones article, Read here http://audiophilereview.com/audiophile-music/kind-of-blue-kind-of-screwed.html This set my mind at rest in regards to my system but now it makes it difficult to listen with out noticing it. |
You speak of this huge flaw yet every format had kind of blue. What tables are you using. Do you have heavy mass platter and speed controller? I do have the corrected version lp and I don't remember it being that different. Do you have any other Miles stuff how does that sound? It is not the best audiophile recording but it is one of the best jazz recordings of all time. Enjoy the ride Tom |
