RE: LSO Live

I don't know that recording of Kleiber's Beethoven 7, only the DG CD with Vienna and the DVD with Amsterdam Concertgebouw. They are thrilling performances with adequate, not great sound.

On the Haitink Beethoven set, the sound (to me) isn't closed in, but it's a little less reverb-y than any of the Kleiber recordings I've heard. Yet to my taste, it isn't dry but just right for the Haitink set.

I don't want to have an argument; it's a matter of personal taste.
