This review is from: World's Greatest Audiophile Vocal Recordings (Audio CD)

I'm not really an audiophile, but I set up a new system including a Super Audio CD player, and have purchased a bunch of SACD's. This is my favorite! Absolutely crystal clear. I camped out in front of my stereo for an hour just listening to this. A really great collection of songs. The other reviewer is right about "Spanish Harlem." Her voice just gets right to me, all the way down inside.

This review is from: World's Greatest Audiophile Vocal Recordings (Audio CD)

This album may be not the world greatest audiophile record, but it's the one of finest album that I have. This album does not like other modern audiophile album that use electronics device in order to boost the dynamics range and complicate Mix.


Here they use only single point microphone, no overdubs, no multi tracking, no large mixing control. So the sound is very analog to my ear. It's a must for both audiophile or people who want a great music

This CD is a must have for é different reasons: first, a very very interesting compilation of excellent artists, second for the exceptionnal recording quality, and this has become one of my favorite test CD.
A must have like I said.
