The reason that the Classical Music Reference Recording guy sucks is that he makes unnecessary and often invasive changes to the music that doesn't even sound better than the original. Look at his remaster of Klemperer's Missa Solemnis and just see how woefully terrible it is by comparison to the 2023 Art et Son transfer.

There is literally no reason to use his inferior garbage over whatever original recording. Naxos has actually talented transfer engineers working on actual shellacs and transferring them digitally to bring us their records. They carefully modify it in post processing to make it easier on the ear. The Classical Music Reference Recording takes those transfers (he does not make his own) and then applied his shitty post processing over it and claims it's an improvement. It's stolen valor and not even good stolen valor at that.
