[QUOTE="Stereophile, post: 63699, member: 1344"] I wonder if this is just me, but I listened to Norah's first album on my old Sansui system (actually very forgiving of iffy production), and I started thinking about upgrading my speakers because the high frequencies in that album sounded screechy and her vocals had loud 's' sounds. Then I listened to the same album on an otherwise solid B&W/Marantz system, and it was still really bad, although a little better. Was the locally manufactured cd just really badly mastered? Is it just that my ears are overly sensitive to highs, and you all thought it was brilliant? The genre certainly lends itself to good production and pleasing sound, but I found myself gritting my teeth every time I put it on and I've never listened to it again, which is a real pity because I like the music.
