By the way, the latest from Storioni Trio is a Beethoven Triple concerto and Archduke Trio. Instead of PentaTone this one is from Challenge Classics and is available in SACD only.
I ripped the DSD layer using my PS3 SACD ripper and transcoded it to 24/88.2. The music is fantastic and so is the sound quality.
Highly recommended.

I particularly love the bass-baritone Matthew Brook on the A & G album, especially "O ruddier than the cherry". It cracks me up. I also have those other Dunedin recordings. Just got the Messiah but haven't listened to it yet. The group seems to always get it right. John Passion is also fantastic. Gotta look into the Beethoven.
