Squonkman asked aout the sound quality of the europan Encore Series in another thread so I opened a new thread.

I have a couple of these 2CD Sets

The Hannover CDis pretty awful (imho). There's a lot of reverb / echo on this 2CD-Set that really makesit difficult to enjoy the music.
Munich and London are incredible, although it looks like that one of the main focusses was on the audience microphones, which means the echo in these new european football stadiums was recorded as well and is part of the CD.

nevertheless, it's a very authentic live-cut and sometimes you feel like "yeah, that's the way it was!"

The Gabriel Encore Series sounds far better. Peter has performed in small Amphitheaters (up to 5000 people), but he also uses another recording technique. His Encores sound thicker, more direct, without too much echo.

In the end it's a matterof taste what you like but I a really curious what these indoor show Encores will sound like!
