Thanks, Mike - I did not take it as such; just clarifying my position! I try to listen to the best versions available, state my preference - and that's it; I certainly have no axe to grind and have so far welcomed virtually all HDTT and Pristine issues as improvements over what has been previously been issued. For example, Art et Son have done good work with the Callas recordings but I still think what Andrew Rose does usually enhances them further for our listening purposes - and on the rare occasion when - in my opinion - he does not, I am happy to say so.
