I noticed that my turntables make a piece of nothing out of the third movement. The PC / DAC plays with vibrating deep bass and the whole room is creaking, while the turntables play very weak LF (but beautiful flutes). |

Ronnie, yes, they are the Mravinsky 1961 recordings in England. There are only 3 things that I have to mention:
1) Audio people foolishly chase those original DG pressings with tulips and so on but I would not advise to spin them. Also some of them are good but a huge number of them were pressed very badly and have very gray sound. For the Mravinsky 1961 recording I would suggest to got for the widely available box-set of the 4,5, and 6 Symphonies. They were pressed in Italy and have very-very good sound, much better then DG’s originals.
2) It is very common for analog people that thy do not have good sound (bass). Generally, you should switch from the same performance between analog abs digital and should you should not have different sound. With analog you should have very slightly better articulation (if we talking about bass) and better transient response of upper bass. All the rest is a fault of your analog set up.
3) I do not think that anyone would be able to debug your analog bass problem over Internet. It would require knowing a lot of details about your setup and what exactly you do with it.

PS: I probably should move it to the Audio forum…
