[QUOTE="Capetowntracks, post: 1049528, member: 13924"] Unfortunately, I read some of the comments first, so expectation bias may have kicked in. For the, er, record, when comparing, I discarded recording 2. Recording 1: surface noise more evident and wider across the soundstage. Voice sounds a little breathy and, for want of a better description, young. Vocal stands out in the mix. Punchy. Recording 3: surface noise less evident and more centralised. I found it easier to follow the tune that the bass was playing using harmonics in the first few seconds. More body to the bass? Vocal more full-bodied, especially when words are emphasised on jumps to lower notes. Seemed easier to peer into what was happening musically. About 1.30 onwards there is a series of sharp (snare drum?) whacks, which seems more dynamic than on the other recordings - startled me. Details evident at the edges of the soundstage. I warmed to recording 3. NB Stax SR-5 phones used. [/QUOTE]
