Post Subject: Tchaikovsky bass calibrationPosted by Ronnie on: 3/12/2006
"A few days ago Clark Johnson visited me and I played to him the Third movement of Mravinsky 1961 performance of Tchaikovsky IV. I love what Mravinsky did with this movement and I pretty much calibrate the bass balance of my playback using this Mravinsky performance."

-I noticed that my turntables make a piece of nothing out of the third movement. The PC / DAC plays with vibrating deep bass and the whole room is creaking, while the turntables play very weak LF (but beautiful flutes).

Before I continue trying to lure some bass out of the turntables, do the the analog and the digital versions sound "the same" (meaning there really is bass engraved in the LP)?
