The Wonderful Sounds Of Quality Record Pressings / Analogue Productions

Originally released in 2008 as a 3-LP set to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the Thorens company, this sampler quickly found many fans in the audiophile community. 27 songs from the

areas of classical music, blues, rhythm & blues, jazz and female vocals have been lovingly selected by Acoustic Sounds owner Chad Kassem and the audiophile (classical) recording experts

at Reference Recordings. Each track is superbly performed, perfectly recorded and immaculately mastered; a real treat that is now finally available on double hybrid multi-channel SACD!

We recommend the use of "L'Art du Son" CD/DVD conditioner for even more sonic improvement.
