Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, Op. 49 - TELARC Edition - WARNING! Digitally Recorded LIVE Cannons!

Telarc International made recording history in 1978 when they used digital audio technology to record the 1812 Overture. With its live cannons and phenomenal dynamic range, it quickly became a favorite demo disc in many audio stores, and the ultimate test for my new CD player and system. The advent of multi-channel discrete surround sound and high-definition audio recording systems such as 24/96 PCM and the DSD system, with its frequency response extending beyond 100 kHz and the availability of Super Audio CD and DVD-Audio, were enough to coax Telarc to create a new recording of the 1812. The new recording is even more taxing on your sound system than the original. Deciding to release the recording on the latest DSD recording equipment, the music, Civil War-era cannons, and the church bells were captured in different venues. The recording is mixed to include optional height information using the LFE channel. Telarc's height information is used to drive a pair of elevated side, preferably dipole, speakers. The height information does add to the overall effect, particularly with the cannons. Even without the height effects, this is a great demo disc, one I demo frequently for myself when my wife is out of the house - the pictures are straightened before she returns! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The review above, was taken from Amazon.com and was written by David C. Canfield. I took his review because I could not have said it better myself. When I worked in the top end audio field, this TELARC Edition was not yet out on CD, so the challenge was to get the turntable ensemble working to perfection. My choice of turntable was the belt driven, reference Linn Sondek LP 12 (which I still own) with a Koetsu arm, tipped with a Kiseki Blue, Silver Spot Low Output Moving Coil Cartridge. This was one of two arm/cartridge combinations, that I knew of, that sailed over those cannons without playing hop-scotch. The other was the Linn Ittok LVII mk2 /Asack combination, which I was also fortunate enough to own in black. Today, on CD, these cannons are ten time more devastating. WARNING - PLEASE find out on a lower volume, how your sound system will respond to the two cannon salvos. The first salvo consists of five LOUD shots. The second salvo a couple of minutes later, consists of 11 (Eleven) LOUD booms. Serious damage can occur to your speakers if your sound is not ultra clean. I would advise AGAINST using a Graphic Equalizer with this CD. Graphic Equalizers only tend to muddy sound in order to give those that use them, the floppy sound they want.
