It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Great to know. Downloaded but out of town and can't listen.

I'm up to my 7th HDTT transfer.

I've been wildly happy with all except the Liszt/Richter Piano Concertos, which seemed a bit dull, (did the record sound like that? I don't remember); the Bruch Scottish Fantasy with Oistrakh, which seemed a bit flat and harsh in the strings, BUT the accompanying Hindemith is absolutely fantastic; and the Tchaikovsky 4th with Monteux, which is not one of RCA's demo recordings but the performance is white hot and worth having IMHO, so sound-nuts proceed with caution.

No complaints whatsoever with the following, both sound and performance:

Ansermet's Petrushka
Stravinsky's Columbia Firebird
Bernstein's Columbia Gerswhin
Munch's RCA Schubert 9th (what perfect pacing in first mov't!)
Karajan's Sibelius 4th and 5th
Walter's lovely Columbia Dvorak 9th (my favorite)
Mehta's Decca Bruckner 9th

...and Morris' Mahler 8th if you know what to expect.
