I have a ask. I have used Diana Krall's - A Case Of You (Live) from the Live In Paris album as one of my test tracks (for some weird reason). If streamed from Qobuz or Spotify, Diana's vocals are clearly on right side in my system. I have also the Analogue Production's vinyl version of the album in which Diana's voice in middle. I'm wondering if there is something weird in my system, so it would be nice to hear where is your Diana in your system?

She could also have been out drinking when you listened.  Digital is funny that way.

In my experience, when the sound stage shifts dramatically something is hooked out of relative phase.

A little to the right I’d say. The track is much more close recorded compared to the others. Very nice. The applauses are also drawn to the right. Maybe another evening?

I'm listening to the CD, and her voice is centered, but the piano occupies a lot of the right side.

Check with a mono recording, not with Diana Krall.
