Thirteen years later, building on everything they had learned about capturing the purest sound, Guttenberg returned to produce The Ultimate Demonstration Disc Volume 2. Designed to bridge the gap between technical terminology and the listening experience, this collection serves as a practical guide to the audiophile lexicon. On each track, Guttenberg \"spells out\" exactly what to listen for, providing clear musical examples of concepts like \"transparency\" and \"soundstage depth.\" By using a custom- built recording chain and avoiding dynamic range compressors, equalizers, or overdubbing, the album captures a \"live\" session exactly as the microphones heard it - resulting in a sound so neutral and natural that it can be used to reveal the subtle differences between high-end speakers, electronics, and cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultimate Demonstration Disc Volume 2 is reissued in 2026 on 180g One-step Pressing double vinyl LP, stereo Hybrid SACD and MQA-CD as part of the Chesky Original Masters series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP 180g One-step Pressing Double Vinyl LP Tracks: Javon Jackson, David Hazeltine, Tony Reedus \u0026amp; Paul Gill - In A Mellow Tone \/ Jon Faddis - Speak Like a Child \/ The Persuasions - Angel Of Harlem \/ The Body Acoustic - Club Descarga \/ I Ching - Young Girl's Heart \/ Jimmy Cobb Quartet - My Foolish Heart \/ Valerie Joyce - Little Wing \/ Larry Coryell, Victor Bailey \u0026amp; Lenny White - Misterioso \/ Rachel Z - Imagine \/ David Chesky - Concerto for Bassoon and Orchestra, Movement 3 \/ Billy Burnette - Tear It Up\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHESKY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46971544404124,"sku":"EVLP104BL","price":62.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2lp_bb02c71c-66f3-4e1d-b471-81f2b1c6ae94.webp?v=1779893945","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/various-artists-the-ultimate-demonstration-disc-volume-2-180g-one-step-pressing-double-vinyl-lp","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
