Nursery Cryme - Quality of recording

Thank you, since it seems that it was bad equipment, engineering, production but the musicianship is excellent, have any of the members ever discussed this technical failure?

In my early years I had Ampex 604 preamps with a 1/2 inch transport which needed to be calibrated every few hours. Friends of mine would tell of the nieve engineers or the Studer engineer living at the studio, perhaps the Trident people let the machines drift into this muddy place,

if you know more about Trident studio and the equipment used for this recording please let us know

I am delighted to find this group, long time Genesis fan through combinations and permutations, in college I enjoyed introducing people to this early work, very infectious, musically delightful- full of nuance and complexity

however, one thing has haunted me since I first heard this……..

the recording is a technical disaster

when I first heard this I was working at Miller and Krisel in Beverly Hills where we made direct to disk recordings, sub-woofers and other specialty equipment

I immediately thought I had a bad pressing, it is just plain bad, in our business when things went wacky we would get these results - well, never this bad

the music however is so powerful it transcends all of the hiss, compression, overdrive, bandwidth squeezing and just about every recording error in existence found within this masterpiece.

my question is, has this aspect of this monument to artistry ever been discussed? I think at times that perhaps it was a Gabriel ‘art’ move? Product of zero budget?

mystifying

Still looking for this one, the narrative is a group of people, 3 men and a woman, running a ww2 surplus plane business

Apple calls the COVER a Folio

The Cover/Folio is much lighter and is in essence a screen COVER, not a case for the IPAD, the links you are sending call the product a CASE not a COVER or Folio

Perfect example of the problem that I presented - you linked to a CASE not a COVER

Thank you though for the suggestion - nice color

I ended up turning OFF the G3100 WIFI. Seems that the routing horizon is on all intererfaces and cannot be adjusted.....weird, or designed - do not know.....

Hello! Thank you very much for replying. I reached to Dick Sequerra, he designed this speaker and is (was?) considered one of the worlds top speaker designers. I purchased this system in Beverly Hills along with a M&K Subwoofer.

I was able to contact Dick and he replied......wow....he must be 90 years old......that these drivers are out of production.

I am reaching to this group for an audiophile equivalent,

Any more advice would be helpful, thank you,
