[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 4764, member: 34"] @Skinnyfat: OK, but what specifically do these recommendations bring to the mix? I know Nora Jones sounds good, but I'm suspicious of the excessive processing applied to her voice; this for me falls into the Dianna krall category. However, if there's something specific I should be listening for, pray tell. (I know that very few- if any- recordings are perfect all-round). My idea is for qualified recommedations. Something along the lines of: Artist: Nora Jones Album: Bat from hell Release: Polydor 1997, Germany Tracks: 1, 3, 6 Highlights: Very wide dynamic range, minimal processing. Piano sounds very realistic. Was not evident on my Polk VG-1's, but really only noticable on the Martin Logan XR-3 ESL's. Really showed up the Polk's inability to reproduce dynamics at realistic listening levels. [/QUOTE]
