More Jazz Recordings Featuring the Piano
One of our good customers, Robert Brook, writes a blog which he calls A GUIDE FOR THE BUDDING ANALOG AUDIOPHILE
Below is a link to the review he has written for a record we had very much enjoyed while doing the shootout for it a few years back, Down to Earth.
Lately we have been writing quite a bit about how pianos are exceptionally good for testing your system, room, tweaks, electricity and all the rest, not to mention turntable setup and adjustment.
- We like our pianos to sound natural (however one chooses to define the term)
- We like them to be solidly weighted
- We like them to be free of smear, a quality that is rarely mentioned in the audiophile reviews we read
- Here are some other jazz records with top quality piano sound
Other records that we have found to be good for testing and improving your playback can be found here.
