Info I imagine we're going to have an interesting vote here. Phonograph cylinders... aren't modern recordings, and were recorded by having the singers next to a big horn, ducking out of the way of each other, instruments somewhere behind them, usually in a reduced arrangement. That said, I think this has everything in the actual recording (less some noise), but I'm not sure if this process is ready to judge wax cylinders. I think we should try, though, or a lot of history's denied us. Adam Cuerden (talk) 04:12, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Caruso on a 1907 wax cylinder? Hell yes! This is a situation in which having this good a sound is great. The historical importance and quality of the performance from Caruso (not so much the others) overrides any standards of what a recording made in 2019 should sound like. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 04:23, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
