It's also a question of preference. DG and HVK ...
But it's not just about "good" or "bad", but also about preference.


Well, I hear that "bad digital" in a lot non-HVK DG, including the Boulez/Mahler stuff, recorded in the US, back in the mid- to late 1990s.

That said, UMG's recent remasterings -- Decca, DG, Philips, Archiv, etc -- seem to bring some life back into these now-classic recordings ... have a listen...

Classical recording engineer, Tony Faulkner, nails it by characterizing digital with a simple "honk" sound he makes with a cupped mouth (somewhere in this video) ...

He wasn't talking about digital. He was talking about an old 78 demo recording.

For anyone interested, that's available here:

I think the Boulez Mahler recordings have excellent sound, they are indeed favorites of mine.
