Rachmaninoff Ampico CD as Victor Orthophonic 78
By John A. Tuttle

HI All,

Just a quick word of advice.

When listening to high quality music you must first have
a high quality playback system. Something in the $2000
region is adequate. Next you must remove ALL tone coloring.
The frequency response of the amplifier must be FLAT. No
bass boost, no treble boost...  in short "0" attenuation.
Next, select a listening level (volume) that is close to
the actual volume of the instrument.

Now you're ready to enjoy the music. Be prepared to be
entertained. It doesn't get any more real.

Musically,

John A. Tuttle
