Ella Fitzgerald - Let No Man Write My Epitaph




Piano and voice, like in the fantastic song 'Black Coffee' were rendered beautifully.


Ella and Louis




We listened to a couple of tracks.
Voices and trumpet again fantastic.
But I could again hear that the bass was a bit of a problem.
Especially the double bass made the enclosure resonate a bit.
Not like with Harbeths or other English speakers, but still a bit.
I'm quite sensitive to that phenomenon, and I don't like it.
Tom told us it was a choice they made, so that the speaker wouldn't sound too 'dry', or 'dead'.
