One other thing I'm noticing about my De Capo's is that I'm listening to a lot of old vinyl these days and enjoying some of my old LP's more than I'd expect. I'm not talking about the cliché "I'm hearing the lead vocalist scratching himself and never noticed that before." Rather, it's that non-audiophile recordings that I used to love sound more musical and pleasurable than I remember them pre-De Capo's.
For example, Michael Franks' "Sleeping Gypsy" has some wonderful tunes on it, but it's a kind of rolled off, closed in sounding recording. And yet I was struck last night by how enjoyable and musical the chorus of "I Hope It's You" sounded. Nice to rediscover old records in this way!
