RE: Here's a reply from Robert Von Bahr of BIS...

Disbeliever: IF the repertoire is the same or similar, and IF the artists are equally "dynamic" in their playing, and IF the other labels have a higher "average level", then YES!!!!! Their recording dynamics is tampered with (read: compressed).
This is not a question about whose recording is the best, this is pure physics. We don't interfere in the dynamics of the artists/repertoire, we faithfully reproduce what they produced. The loudest part of the recording is set to zero (allowed top level). The rest is what it was. If you don't like it, too bad.
But I am tired of reading your drivel, Mr. Disbeliever. If you want to go through life listening to what a recording engineer thinks you should like rather than the real thing, yes, do abstain from our products. Easier for both of us.
