Review: Other recordings may have a more lush string tone, deeper bass, more cavernous acoustics, more "exciting" balances, more vivid imaging. No matter. This simply miked direct-disc recording (a Blumlein pair of Coles/BBC ribbons was used) is simply the most real recorded orchestral sound I have ever experienced." - John Atkinson, Stereophile (Record2Die For)
