Many of the RCA records recorded in England (for example, the Faust/Carmen or Royal Ballet Gala records), like their Decca counterparts, have glorious reproduction of the London Underground going by under the hall in which the recording took place; the Heifetz recordings often have a low frequency content that may be someone moving around on the podium(?)--for example, the Bruch Scottish Fantasy. On my Shaded Dog of the latter there is no problem, but Classic's records have much better bass extension, which in many cases is a mixed blessing. That may be what you're hearing, assuming your speakers can get into those nether reaches. Ah, wish my pre had a rumble filter!
Low Frequency Rumble Question
I have a Linn LP12/Ekos/van den hul black beauty analog front end. When I play records from my collection, it is very quiet.
I have recently purchased some reissues of famous RCA recordings from Classic Records (all classical music) that appear on Harry Pearson's "super disc" list. In playing some, but not all, of these records, there is a fairly loud, low frequency "rumble" type noise in some fairly lenghty passages. It never lasts the whole disc, but is very pronounced when it occurs, almost like a low frequency "feedback" sound. This does not occur on my other records.
Has anyone had such a problem with any of the Classic Records reissues?? Could it be a problem with my system? - arm/catridge resonance problem perhaps? Any ideas on why it does this on only a few records?? Thanks for any thoughts.
