I agree with the other reviewers that this is an excellent performance and interpretation of the Planets. No gimmicks. Davis has always been underrated, IMO. I particularly like the more yielding tempo in Jupiter, as I feel most conductors rush through it. I'm only listening in stereo and the sound ... more |

| I finally got mine and have listened a couple of times. It generally sounds very good, but would be better if the A/D conversion was done with the Grimm. ... more |

| Bruce,
You say the Grimm sounds best at 64x, but how do you (or would you) describe the inferiority of the Korg at 128x? ... more |
