Played the vinyl last night and noted the SQ but was just to tired for posting. Thought I would also grade the performance. I had the most difficulty grading the sound of the Rick Dufay album. It was recorded using the 3M system(The Record Plant Studio C) and mastered by Bernie Grundman using the 3M system at A&M. Clearly not at the same SQ level of Steely Dan-Gaucho(3M system) but the 3.9 might be on the low side, need to listen to the complete album. I’m sure some will disagree with my SQ ratings but let me know if I’m way off the mark with SQ or PF.
