I didn't want to pollute Christian's thread so I'm starting this one.
I know that DG recordings aren't overly respected but I recently have been enjoying several of them. A week ago I found a treasure trove of DGs from the 70's in a used record store. They were mint and probably the best pressings I have ever heard. Not a crackle let alone a pop throughout. No low frequency surface noise - truly silent - even the loop at the end of the LP was silent (first time I've ever experienced this).
The recordings themselves seem clean with texture. Not as immediate as Deccas or Mercurys but still enjoyable to me.
What are your thoughts on these?
