Classical Vinyl Series

Hi Alex

I think the 2021 sounds very musical, the intro piano and trumpet tonality sounds great, more than the 1964 or 1973 which is surprising. They all sound good but I think I prefer the 2021,
Without listening I would have gone for the 1964 edition.
Edit I need to listen more carefully

Sounds very good.
What was used for recoding?

Hi @ihcho ,

I use Sony HDR MV1 music video recorder.

I think the drawback of the new reissue is it sounds less vivid versus old issues. Older issues sound more energetic with more drive.

You will hate me for this - but each one starts with distracting pops, crackles or a deep grumbling noise which of course I just don’t get in the Qobuz version I listen to. It’s been so long since I listened to vinyl I’d forgotten about it.  I know it is part of the experience, and there are many other compensations, but now I just find it odd and bothersome to have that noise that wasn’t there when the music was being performed. Sorry!
