Of all the thousands of classical and orchestral pressings auditioned to date, we have identified only about 150 that offer the serious audiophile what we would deem to be the greatest performances of those works, coupled with the highest quality sound.
Click on the link above to see the records currently making the list in 2024. In the coming years we expect to find many more of what we like to call “the best of the best,” so stay tuned if classical and orchestral vinyl with top quality sound is of interest to you.
