That would be great. I'm curious how the soundspace & large scale bombast of a symphony translates.
Well...............put on Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" (it's almost Xmas season, right?) done by the Kirov Orchestra led by Valery Gergiev. Holy smokes, what an incredible display of sound. I'm not kidding, it was incredible. The Nutcracker, for those who haven't seen it, is a dramatic play and the instruments render it so compelling. There's a section near the end of the first disc (two CD's) where the crescendo builds and builds and what sounds like a kettle drum was shaking my head. I was listening probably louder than normal but it sounded so darn good.
Soundstage was really really good - HD800 comparable for sure, and the bombast was moving. I cannot believe how good it was. I'll be listening to it again. I recommend using it as a piece to run your speakers or headphones through the paces. Truly beautiful music and such power. Wow...............I'm glad you asked for a classical comparison. It was worth the time spent immersed in the sound.
