Classical masterpiece collection
The reissue of classical music masterpieces by ESOTERIC has attracted a lot of attention, both for its uncompromising
commitment to recreating the original master sound, and for using hybrid Super Audio CD SACD technology to improve sound
quality. This series marks the first hybrid SACD release of historical recording selections. These new audio versions feature
ESOTERIC s proprietary re-mastering process to achieve the highest level of sound quality.
ESOTERIC equipment used for re-mastering
The criterion of re-mastering is to faithfully capture the quality of the original master tapes. ESOTERIC s flag ship D/A
converters, model D-01VU, Rubidium master clock generator model G-0Rb and ESOTERIC MEXCEL interconnect cables and power cords,
were all used for this re-mastering session. This combination of highly advanced technology greatly contributed to capturing
the high quality sound of the original master tapes.
Experience by yourself
Experience the legendary performance in this new Super Audio CD/CD format. Not only for new followers, but also for well
experienced followers of these recorded materials. All will be equally impressed by the soul hidden within the notes, but
never before found in previously released recordings in any format.
