jazzbo Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Since I've been really thrilled with the sound lately I put on two recordings that have awesome soundstaging, one "natural" and one "artificial" so to speak. And man they DELIVER "realistic" depth and width and dynamics. The "natural" was Ella Fitzgerald "Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Gershwin Songbook" on Verve 3 cd, disc 1 this time, and with the "Phase" on my DAC "OUT." WOW. Then the artificial was Flying Lotus "Flamangra" which showed layered production that always draws me deep in. What I had to do firs was prove to myself there was no distortion at the listening level I was listneing on other material, because there is plenty of deliberate distortion in this musical collage.
