EMI Electrola Pressings seem veiled,


and setting optimal VTA is difficult. Any other of you with the same experience ? The recording I'm playing right now is the Mefistofele, Caballe/Domingo. TriPlanar arm/Titan i cartridge.

I wonder why it's hard to find 'the zone' on this and other German EMI's

LOVE the Titan - it is very detailed and the arm is dynamic and lively - quite a nice combo. My pre is the Giscours, amp the Vac Ren 70-70: bass in abundance. A friend is now breaking in the new Lyra Kleos - I can keep you posted.

Oh, back to my question - what is different about the two pressings that makes the audible difference ? I am new to this level of vinyl and am curious about everything.
Ebm - Why is this so ? Different vinyl recipe - I assume the masters are the same, right ?
English pressings better vinyl they have original tapes better everything.
