I would agree that the DPA's are brighter. But they also pick up more spurious noise: the chair creaks are noticeably louder on the DPA tracks. I also notice that the DPA's sound somewhat "scooped" in the midrange which may account for the level difference you mentioned as well as the perceived brightness. Both seem to evince the same stereo width. I notice a slight distortion on the crescendo on the DPA track in the high end. It is not there in the Gefell track; Was there any amplification used in the hall?

Thanks for presenting this comparison.

Danny
