So, compare commercial classical recordings to your classical recordings and don't compress !!!

I'm quite sure that a lot of commercial recordings are lightly compressed or even limited at extreme peaks - but if it's well done, it won't be noticeable.

I ocasionally listen to the art music radio and it is much more quiet than the rest of radio programmes, but it has a beautiful sound.

And it certainly uses compression...

HIgh quality EQ should do the trick of bringing more details, more "punch" if needed...

Now that's what I would call "pop treatment"... I practically never use EQ...
