OK, I've been lurking for a while, but I figured it time to start talking. So here is the first . . .
I am a huge connoisseur of Pink Floyd and recently invested in "The Wall Live" double CD set. Now the arrangement of the music itself is, I feel, superior to the original studio cut, however, I am sad to report that I think the recording of the live set is crap.
I have tried the CDs on a variety of sources and with two different sets of phones (HD590, HD600). There is an unmistakable buzz that asserts itself several times throughout the recording. I have isolated the problem to periods of exposed vocals. One of the worst instances is when Gilmore comes in with the vocals on "Mother".
I have been using a portable CD with a Headsave Ultra (but I get the buzzing with or without the amp) and HD590/600 phones. However, like I said before, even when I change the source to a PC or a different CD player - same deal.
None of my other disks have ever done this. Has anyone else experienced this with this recording? Most of all, can anything be done to help it?
Thanks.
