In Reply to: You may have put your finger on it re Pentatone sound. posted by jsm on March 1, 2007 at 17:25:06:
Although I don't have a simple explanation for it (I can make up some hypotheses, though), it could be that some discs/labels sound better on some systems than on others. i am not doubting that Pentatone RQRs can sound great on some systems or to some people, but on average on my system they don't. On the other hand, most Telarcs (but not all), Philips, and Harmoni Mundi sound superb on my system. RCAs are a mixed bag.Do you have the Rossini Overtures? I only keep bringing it up because the reviews I saw just raved about the sound.
