Right - I was referring to some classical titles rather than to KOB

And you're also right about HDTT's playback electronics. From time to time, they've made improved versions available of some of their earlier releases - and sometimes the improvements are really ear opening. I asked Robert one time what exactly he did to get such an improvement between an earlier version of one of his titles and the updated version (which they sometimes call a "redux" version). He answered that they didn't really "do" anything to the updated version - they had just gotten better equipment in the meantime! ;-)

HDTT version of Horenstein's Mahler 3 is coming - pbarach 11:45:16 09/26/22 (1)
HDTT is currently working on a new issue of Jascha Horenstein's Mahler 3 (LSO), which was originally released on Unicorn (and on Nonesuch in the USA). The original release had some very odd balances, but apparently someone else was permitted to use a totally different mic setup to record the sessions, and those tapes are what HDTT reportedly has on hand. I heard a substantial sample from the first movement, and it was certainly a sonic improvement.

This performance used to be my favorite Mahler 3 (I like some others better now), but I'm eager to hear the whole thing once HDTT releases it.

  Yes, I am, too. This sample sounds very encouraging. BTW, the sample, at 24-192, is available on HDTT's website along with a lengthy post from John Haley about what he's doing to get this into form for release. Just look for the blog post by John.
Everything you say tallies with my experiences. nt - John Marks 07:26:27 09/24/22 (0)
