I listen to orchestral music live and it has a solid bass foundation and lots of energy below 100Hz

This SACD is anemic in the lower registers, which causes the midrange and the even the high frequencies to sound incorrect. I do not believe for one second the St. Petersburg hall sounds glassy, cold, hard and totally devoid of low frequency energy, if so I never want to listen to an orchestra play there! Check out how realistic the Mercury Living Presence recordings done in the Bolshoi Hall, Tchaikovsky Conservatory, Moscow sounds, it is warm deep bass, smooth midrange and beautiful delicate highs and the sound HUGH with pin-point imaging using 3 microphones. Or for that matter any recordings on Telarc, Mercury Living Presense, RCA Living Stereo or Reference Recordings.

The Water Lily SACD is extremely bass shy; live music DOES NOT sound like this. This is why I am letting everyone listen to this disgraceful SACD for free.
