Free Music Review: Thunderous!
Hit: 5 Stars
I am a new listener to classical music and as such do not claim to have yet developed a refined ear. However, this recording has exactly the attributes other reviewers have reported. The chorus and the cannons make it. I listened on a pair of Definitive Tecnology Mythos One tower speakers and a Definitive Technology Super Cube 2 subwoofer. I set the subwoofer to a "normal" level, not artificially boosted. I want the sub set so that the bass end of orchestral music sounds natural. With the volume set to about actual orchestral hall level, I was blown out of my chair! Those cannons shook the floor, my chair and my ribcage. The chorus was so emotionally powerful, and the orchestra played beautifully. I have another version of the 1812 that pales in comparison to this recording. As an aside, I would say that having a quality subwoofer will allow you to hear the low end, and nuances thereof, that are not audible with most towers or bookshelfs. It was with some reluctance that I believed this after many years of refusing to use a sub. I always thought that people used them to WAY overboost the bass to un-natural levels, and you can certainly do that, but you don't have to. If the recording engineers accurately capture the bass, it will be revealed with a good sub.
