Organ CDs with really deep bass
Tk 12 of Schauerte SYR14130 is what I imagine to be dinosaur dreaming sounds. No living creature snores with the rhythm, depth, power, and wind volume.  Another Passau CD to look for is titled Dom Zu Passau - Edgar Krapp Eurodisc 6100 031-231.  T...

Organ CDs with really deep bass
SACD is 5.1 surround sound from 6 channels (like DVD) . You need 2 microphones for CD, 6 microphones for SACD. The extra channels are not multi tracks, but separate sources.  The FL and FR channels on CD and SACD should sound the same, but SACD al... 
Organ CDs with really deep bass
SACDs generally sound better because of the greater effort required to record them.  Actual bass output depends on the material played:(1)  Ian Tracey- Grand Pieces Symphoniques on Chandos is subtle (listen to the bass fluttering on tk 2), and wit... 
Nature Sounds CD's
I have just been listening to five CDs from the Sounds of Nature” series by Chuck Plaisance and Suzanne Douchet. These are common, good value (cheap) and binaural. As an example: an amazon reviewer reported "Rolling Thunder" has human noises" (I ...

Two more producers worthy of investigation are Jean Roche(with 70 nature recordings) and Lang Elliott. My apologies to other producers of quality not yet purchased and named. A perfect binaural recording would sound odd in stereo so most binaural ...
