I find PentaTone to be all over the map...

I find it difficult to pinpoint a 'house sound' with PentaTone. Some of them I find overly dark and murky (like the Janowski/Pittsburgh Brahms 2/3 that I mentioned below), while others are too bright and brash (the Berglund/RNO Shostakovich 8). And then some are just right (the Jarvi Stravinsky 'L'Histoire du Soldat' suite and other chamber works). As someone else said, it has a lot to do with the venue and miking. I have no problems with PentaTone's RQR series of remastered Philips recordings, though, which for the most part sound wonderful.
