High quality CDs

Where can I find CDs with high quality recording, specifically classical.. More than 50% of the CDs that I buy with classical music, sounds so anemic and noisy when you crank up. Any suggestions will be really helpful. I prefer physical format over streaming..

Sounds like you need some tone controls. My former McIntosh C-22 preamp was good.

My current preamp is a Mcintosh C53 with 8 band equalizer, and that doesn't help. However, I am soon replacing the C53 with a Luxman C900U in June. The demo of the C900U at home considerably improved the CDs but would like to explore really good recording..

MoFi does make hybrid sacd's which include a Redbook layer and they are not the only ones. Check the Music Direct and Acoustic Sounds sites.
