Dvorak Symphony No. 2 Classic records excellent

I am listening to Classic Records reissue of Dvorak 2nd symphony Monteux/ London Symphony Orch. It is excellent. It is the 200 grams issue and it is very quiet and dynamic. The best one I have heard so far! Classic is getting better. Highly recommended!! I am excited! This is the best lp I have heard in a while from Classic. This one and the Carmen/Faust. If they keep doing this, I will be very happy and so will many other analog lovers. Has anyone else heard this one and if so, how is the quality of yours? Any quality control stuff, bad pressings? Mine is excellent! The quietest and best sounding reissue! As I said, I am excited for anyone who loves vinyl if this is a preview of things to come.

If the change to VTA has made the Speakers Corner reissue sound good - and at the same time made the Classic RCAs sound bad, I'd say that you are now hearing things correctly.

(I'm somewhat joking)

There is no evidence here that the Speakers Corner LPs have any special VTA requirements. And the reissue of The Birds has lots of air.

How old is your Glider? Is it the original version? What arm is it mounted in? And what turntable?

Tzh21y - what do you have the load set to in your Xono?

If you don't hear air on that SC Merc - and you don't find the Classic Bartok to be bright - it could be that you have too much load on your cartridge.

I am breaking in new innerconnects. Things are starting to open up now. Maybe that has something to do with it. My friend said they take at least 50 hours to break in. I only have about a quarter of that on them

I have the Original Bartok 2nd Suite on Merc Living Presense SR90098 That sounds amazing.

The Daphne and Chloe is excellent on the reissue

The glider is the original version. That is not the issue. I think it was the interconnects, because it is sounding amaing this morning!

I just put on Ancient Airs, sounds great, I just bought the Stravinsky Box set. Do you have that one and how does it it sound? I am particularly interested in the Petrouchka.
