Yes, the Bruckner 9 by VPO and Giulini in 1988 is one of those few recordings
why I do practice High-End audio. The opening of the 3rd movements is probably the
best play I ever heard committed to recording media and one of the best compositions
by mankind, in my view. The sound of DG of course is typically horrible, dry,
grainy burned-out, the typical DG crap.
However, there is a trick. Milq/Macongo can rectify it. One
of the reasons because I for years tuned my playback to play exactly this
recording. However, my playback needs to have exceptionally good electricity
day to play it. When it does happen a few times a year I always pull my Giulini
B9 and I always play it and it sounds
spectacular. I have seen some very strange effects with sound when I play this
recording on a good electricity day. I remember it was good 15 years back and
it was in the middle of a snow blizzard. The electricity was amazing and I
pulled my Giulini’s B9 and it sounded beyond belief. On that night, adding +10-12DB to my ULF channel
did not make any difference in the auditable result. Very interesting….Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
