AKG & Neumann microphones. I agree, there are some noisy spots (and some VERY quiet ones, too!). The crud is probably due to a bad amp. Too bad someone with ears didn't review the master before they committed it to a disc! However, as a previous submission suggested, it would be difficult to say that it's worse than a slightly aged vinyl disc. CD's in the Portland area are going for 15 to 17 dollars. What are people in other areas paying for them? - Tom Kloos, Tektronix, Inc.
