Annoying buzzing sound on Telarc's Berlioz Requiem

Posted by Adam Verver (A) on December 22, 2004 at 17:05:53

There is a soft but clearly audible (and thus annoying) buzzing sound on my copy of Telarc's Berlioz Requiem (Spano/Atlanta SO) SACD. It sounds like a 60 Hz ground loop buzz/hum and appears (or is audible) only when the music dies down. Alas, there are many silences in that tremendous piece of music (e.g. right after each of the first few opening bars on the Introdus [Track 1]) and the Chiaroscuro (silence/sound) effect dear to good old uncle Hector is marred by this less than peaceful silence.

How on Earth could Telarc let this pass? (Mr. Bishop are you listening?)

Or could it be just my copy? (Any silence-tuned inmates with another copy want to chime in?)

I doubt that the buzz is only in my copy as it sounds as a purely analog problem that is extraneous to the digital mastering or reprduction processes.

A disappointed Adam Verver.
