Good to hear
Can you recommend me some good sounding recordings? Mainly of the larger symphonic repertoire.....
Just got back from holiday.
I have 3 sets of speakers in here.
The Phantoms, huge horns and some large traditional type moving coil speakers.
The Phantoms and conventional speakers have a very similar balance, the horns give a more distant perspective.
We have a model-B Steinway in the music room. The Phantoms and Epilogs sound like the piano does in our music room. The horns sound like the piano does in around the middle row seats of of the Queen Elizabeth hall.
I would say that my recordings don't sound unusual on the Phantoms to me, so I would expect recordings which sound better to you on other speakers would sound better on the Phantoms too.
IME the sound quality of recordings varies more than the SQ of hifi equipment.
