Live FM radio broadcasts on WCRB of the Boston Symphony Orchestra are my make-it-or-break-it test.
It’s the raison d'être of the system and all else follows.
By a welcome gift of fate, a few years ago they relocated their broadcast tower to six miles away and I have a fine tuner.
The way they mike the orchestra, you can hear every little thing right in its place, and the whole room.
As for test tracks, I’m so used to playing dozens that to narrow it down to just two…
You’ve got me thinking and it’s going to take a while.
