Because the Krenek sounded AWFUL.
Nothing I could do to fix it. Tried toeing in the horns, tried toeing them out. Even a different amp.
Nothing helped.
Awful.
Maybe just the room?
Follow Ups:
What was your source? I believe this could make a major difference on a recording like this.
I cannot count the recordings that I thought sounded really good on physical CD but never sounded quite right either streamed or played back as a music file.
QOBUZ 24/96.
I'm blaming Krenek.
"I cannot count the recordings that I thought sounded really good on physical CD but never sounded quite right either streamed or played back as a music file."
It really depends on the source of the streamed/played back file. Many were botched but I have never been disappointed by any that I ripped myself. There will always be crap out there but one does not have to accept it.

I only recently encountered this after installing a Synergistic Research Phase 1 cable from the Cambridge transport to the Directstream Jr. Prior to that installation, I would have said they were pretty close. Now...not so much. For serious listening it appears that I'll be digging through the CD stacks again.
You need a CD player ;-)
