I only have one BIS CD where dynamic range is an issue. I have to turn the volume much higher than any of my other CDs to get any sound. Granted, it's strings played pianissimo but still.Mostly my problem with BIS is with their inability to make natural sounding recordings. But then I dislike Alia Vox too, which everybody else seems to celebrate. Though not sounding like BIS at all, I find them totally unnatural for different reasons. So it could just be that I'm weird.
I have countless Bach's cantatas by Suzuki and love them, but it's certainly not because when I close my eyes, it's like being there.
