Hi and thanks again.
Any particular title/edition ?
Lately i have been more obsessed by the quality of the recordings than by the actual music.
I think that the world changed when they invented the audio recording system.
I have always a long term project to try some live recordings ... maybe of friends singing/playing.
A mics pair, a mic preamp and a converter interfaced with a pc.
But i have to wait for the retirement.
Unfortunately.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,

Hi i would like to have an experience like this one described by the Stereophile reviewer Wes Phillips (review in the link)" I've got to tell you that a live microphone feed, especially coming out of a 24-bit/96kHz dCS Elgar processor, sounds considerably more real than anything I've ever heard committed to any medium. I found it disorienting to slip the headsets on and be immediately transported into the acoustic of the chapel which makes me wonder how the characters on Star Trek can handle transporter beams with such aplomb "
This review together with the one of the Rockport Antares loudspeakers have stimulated my curiosity about audio reproduction at the highest level ... Virtual reality ... and even a time machine effect !
Thinkable only if the recording is of very high quality as the playback system.
To be there ... even if the real event happened 20 years ago.
Kind regards,

If it is not music I like, I could care less. I'd rather listen to music I want to hear on 78 rpm shellac.

Hiya,
It's self-titled.
Claude Chalhoub - Claude Chalhoub
Label:Teldec Classics - 8573-83039-2
Format:CD, Album
Country: Germany
Released:2001
Genre:Classical, Folk, World, & Country
Style:Neo-Classical, Romantic
I have a couple of discs on Teldec classics that I think are well recorded.
Another label I like that has a number of good recordings is Doublemoon.
And, I like a lot of ambient/Jazz on the ECM label: more than a few that I find to be well recorded.
""Lately i have been more obsessed by the quality of the recordings than by the actual music.""
I hear you and have been there. But after making a number of very expensive mistakes a few years ago: I've stopped doing that. For my favorite kind of music, there are not many "great" recordings.
Cheers,
