Live in Berlin (Audio CD)

Customer Review

The pieces are good, it stuck nice ideas therein, the orchestra is just A-Class. I have New Year's Eve caught excerpts from the concert on TV and then ordered the DVD immediately.

The CD sounds fishy, ​​here there is nothing to complain about for me. However, a significant drawback is the very strong hiss of Sting's voice, it may just interfere with quieter songs very. If there is a De-Esser was in the signal, then someone with a Shure Super 55-BCR picked the wrong microphone. Be that as it may, 'dining', 'Te' and 'Sch' are partially extremely noisy and consume the enjoyment.

DVD-Audio (Stereo PCM track) but drives the blood pressure to new heights. It can not be that one in louder passages a nasty Zapp from the speakers off. I have the DVD on the laptop belongs to HW player through conditioning and by VLC with headphones, as is clipping actually not the monitor speakers, but the sound track (or at least a part of it vllt. A plugin has been overridden). I am quite prepared to make compromises in a live recording, but it can be if the CD-sound mixed without clipping / mastered (compare only "Moon over Bourbon Street"), then it can not be justified in my view, that it fails with the DVD.

I do not move certainly in audiophile spheres, but I am absolutely unable to enjoy the wonderful music partly with such flaws. Even on a mid-table PA system can be heard very clearly the noise. My last hope is that the DTS track is not affected. Otherwise I have to go to the pieces that are not on the CD, without.

I can not guarantee buy recommendation.

Whoever ascends the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, who awakens expectations of the highest standards, not one bit less. I celebrate music and like to do this even when listening to this concert. However, only with the CD.
