Also to weigh in on the mono recording posts above, the Analog Productions masters of Ella and Louis does an exceptional job of portraying depth.
What are songs where people or instruments sound closer to you?
So stereo separation is relatively easy but what are some songs/albums where the singer seems closer to you. So we all can see the Beatles on stage with Ringo in the back, Paul on the front left, George in the back right and John in the front right.
What music would you all suggest where you can hear both the left / right separation and the front / back separation? I hope I’m making myself clear.
Thanks.

I just stuck my toe into streaming 6-8 weeks ago thinking I have 2500+ CD’s and and if I listen to 4-5 a day, I won’t repeat a disk for years, blah blah blah and now after just a few weeks I’m listening 80% streaming and am already thinking about changing the power supply on the N130 or getting a better streamer. It doesn’t help that I lost an 18 month old drive in my NAS. WD sent me a lower refurbished drive and I had to send it back and wait for them to send me the correct one. |
Take a listen to Stadium Arcadium by the RHCP SQ is great and instrument placement is spectacular Drums are front and center and slightly elevated Vocals are right where they should be, bass is off center to the left, guitar off center to the right The entire band sounds like they're in the room and firing on all cylinders A couple of sleepers that build and impress Wet Sand Hey Snow (Hey Oh) Hard To Concentrate |
