Re: Wow - is it possible. . .

On my system, I can hear the spotlite mikes clearly. Take a recording like Scheherazade or the Lt Kije, both of which have many solos on various instruments. You'll hear the soloist stand out and when the solo is over the instruments will move back into the orchestral mix. Based on the reviews in TAS, you would think this should not happen, but it is there and you can hear it.
For a more natural approach, the Mercs are still my favorite as the soloists are localized and in proportion to the rest of the ensemble. The drawback is that the Mercs have audible tape hiss and a slightly brighter top end....Unfortunately, nothing is perfect.
