In Reply to: Update ... Redbook CDs still don't sound as good as on my Sony 9000ES. Hopefully more break-in posted by Striving for Musical Clarity on April 30, 2003 at 21:40:19:
seems to emphasize the fine sound from the from the finer CDs but also it seems to bring out the poorer qualities of the poorer recordings (mostly CDs recorded in the '80s).Right now I'm listening to the "Celebration" live recording limited edition CD of the Canadian Brass playing with the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra on a Zaiks / Biem (Polish) CD. Wow! It feels like I'm right there in the audience. The clarity, the imaging, the full sound of the brass and orchestra, it's all there.
