--1976 Japanese pressing Denon PCM early digital recording of Beethoven Symphony No.9 Choral. It’s in mint condition. Shame it sounds so bad. Flat. Compressed. Unemotional. Crap.

-- Mozart String Quartets 14 and 15 KV387, KV421 Alban Berg on Telefunken. 1970. Silent vinyl. Beautiful recording. You can feel the cello bow rosin leaving the horsehair. Melodic and colorful. Sit up and listen insightful. It actually sounds like their old tubes! Maybe I'm imagining it.
