I have quite a number of RR on vinyl. Absolutely love the Hindemth and Arnold albums. Beautiful music wonderfully recorded. RR jazz offerings from Mike Garson, Tim Brock, The Blazing Redheads are fun tunes in killer sound. The Garson Oxnard Sessions LPs do have an unusually distant perspective however.
Reference Recordings
Does anybody find Reference Recordings truly high fidelity?
In orchestral music, their perspective seems to be from the rear balcony of the auditorium.
I’ve always thought if my system improved I would hear what many critics rave about.
But now I’ve come to the conclusion they are just dull and washed-out recordings with no sound staging and lots of bass. Even with the HDCD setting available on my Oppo 105 the sound still is distant and watery.
Is it just me, or do others feel this way?
