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

RE: No ducking allowed! ;-)

Well, Chris, we disagree at least re "greatest piano concerto ever written" for which soubriquet I'd nominate instead Beethoven's 4th or Mozart's K 466. Were I not modest, I'd add "harrumph" to that.

As for the Volodos, age has lessened my hearing acuity; because I now live alone, I rarely turn on my "big system", listening instead mostly at my office desk where I get good sound but not so much so that multi-miking messes bother me as much as they used to (though that may also be a function of craft ebbing). But I can imagine how such would drive you, with your 5-channel set-up, to distraction. On the issue merely of musical performance, there is something magical that Rachmaninoff does with the recurrent theme of the 3d's first move that makes me feel, strongly, "Russian winter". So far, in my experience, only Volodos comes close to duplicating that.
