Actually I am not surprised by that, after all he was Karajan! The name or experience or knowledge from the sound engineer didn't matter... " Whats the difference between Karajan and god? - God doesn't think he is Karajan! " Personally I think I didn't like the Karajan recordings I heard, but I can't really say why and I can't remember how I compared. I know I like my recording of Haydns "Schöpfung" (en: "Creation") conducted by Leonard Bernstein. I don't like my recording of Haydns "Die Jahreszeiten" (en: "The seasons") conducted by Sigiswald Kuijken. But the main reason for this is the audio engineer that mixed the second with to much dynamic range and to much headroom => its not loud enough for most listening environments... Have fun, Arnold
