I own 3 real D2D LP's, all 3 sound very full, warm, realistic and detailed.
1978 on DIRECT-DISK LABS, Nashville: the new BRUBECK quartet/ A CUT ABOVE !
1976 on Sheffield Lab-5, California: Dave Crusin/ Discovered again
1973 on Sheffield Lab-1, California: Lincoln Mayorga/ Volume III
 
I have more LP's from MFSL, ATR, ECM etc that also sound very good.
 
I also must say that I own 30-50 LP's from the Rockjazz begin/mid-70's era and most of them sound very good too.
Weather Report, the first 5 albums
Return to Forever,
Chick Corea/Stanley Clark
Billy Cobham,
BackDoor etc.
 
Well I'm going to listen again! Have fun Han

Maybe if you listen to your "Jazz at the Pawnshop" LP using a 20,000 GBP K Crimson cartridge with a Lark's Tongue stylus, it will improve the sound. Tongue

One of the reviewers I often read often seems to use the Sheffield Labs recording of Harry James - The King James Version, as a reference recording - accordingly I sourced a copy for myself some time ago (I also have the Lincoln Mayorga that Han mentioned and a Blue Grass recording on Sheffield Labs D2D).
I read some of the recording notes from the Harry James album and the recording process was quite a logistic exercise from that account so it is fairly easy to see why it is not done more often.
I have generally found them to be rather special and enjoyable, but a couple of recent tweaks and a rather more liberal twist of the throttle really brought Harry James off the deck and into the living room today and I could hear what the reviewer was on about.
Very exciting - wonder what it would sound like on top shelf gear - never mind, it was pretty awesome on mine, thanks to one GS, manufacturer and purveyor of fine audio products for the importunate and the discriminating. (free plug!)
Do not adjust your mind - normal programming will resume shortly.
