My Bach Cantata project took several steps forward
yesterday when I received in the mail 8 LPs, covering
16 cantatas, including 13 that I didn't have. I now
only have about 18 to go to have a full set. I sure
love these works. The present LPs are from the
Harnoncourt/Concentus Musicus complete edition on
Telefunken. Telefunken LPs have never appeared much
on the "Super Recordings" lists, but I find their
sound (in general) to be very, very, natural. Highly
recommended.

It's almost 80 degrees here today, but I think that I
might stay inside and listen to these fabulous
recordings while doing my taxes ;-)

Maybe if you think real hard Jennifer, you could find a
newsgroup where this sort of post is on-topic.

Discussing a record label in terms of recorded sound
quality? RAO?

Is the SQ of recordings a technical or an musical
artistic/administrative question?


Yes.


Wrong. It's completely a musical artistic/administrative question given
that we have so many forms of digital media that are sonically
transparent.

Just remember that not all media is as badly audibly flawed as the vinyl
LP.


Once again, Arny "assumes" the answer, despite a large number of
professional sound people who disagree with him. When challenged, he will
cite a) "science is on my side", b) his college ee textbooks citing that "96
db is enough", c) his pcm-only abx website. But he won't provide any hard
evidence, because he has never done a bonafide listening test of audio
components comparing CD to any hi-rez system, and based on scarcity of
comment, it is doubtful that he has done even any informal but careful
listening testing using native DSD (although while not the best his Sony
C775 and his system should be adequate to reveal it).
