Not to beat this issue of recorded sound to death, but I just listened to a CD I'd forgotten I had: The Renaissance Lute, by Ronn Mc Farlane on Dorian. To me this is one of the better recent (well, 1994) lute recordings I've heard. I'm familiar with Dorian as a company well regarded in audiophile circles but don't know the details of how they recorded Ronn. . .
