Thirteen years later, building on everything they had learned about capturing the purest sound, Guttenberg returned to produce The Ultimate Demonstration Disc, Volume 2. Designed to bridge the gap between technical terminology and the listening experience, this collection serves as a practical guide to the audiophile lexicon. On each track, Guttenberg \"spells out\" exactly what to listen for, providing clear musical examples of concepts like \"transparency\" and \"soundstage depth.\" By using a custom-built recording chain and avoiding dynamic range compressors, equalizers, or overdubbing, the album captures a \"live\" session exactly as the microphones heard it-resulting in a sound so neutral and natural that it can be used to reveal the subtle differences between high-end speakers, electronics, and cables.\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe Ultimate Demonstration Disc, Volume 2 will be reissued in 2026 on 180g One-step Pressing Double Vinyl LP, SACD Hybrid Stereo, and MQA-CD as part of the Chesky Original Masters series.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e    Tracks\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    Credits\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e    1 Side One\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    2 In a Mellow Tone - Javon Jackson, David Hazeltine, Tony Reedus, Paul Gill\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    3 Speak Like a Child - Jon Faddis\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    4 Angel of Harlem - the Persuasions\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    5 Side Two\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    6 Club Descarga - Bob Mintzer, Giovanni Hidalgo, Andy Gonzalez, David Chesky, Randy Brecker\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    7 Young Girl's Heart - I Ching\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    8 Side Three\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    9 My Foolish Heart - the Jimmy Cobb Quartet\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    10 Little Wing - Valerie Joyce\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    11 Misterioso - Larry Coryell, Victor Bailey, Lenny White\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    12 Side Four\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    13 Imagine - Rachel Z\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    14 Concerto for Bassoon and Orchestra, Movement 3 - David Chesky; Symphony Orchestra of Norrlands Opera\u003cbr\u003e\r\n    15 Tear It Up - Billy Burnette\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedia Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSleeve Condition: Mint (M)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: JAZZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Type: 2xLP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 06\/05\/2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Love Vinyl Records","offers":[{"title":"- JAZZ *NEW*","offer_id":49263132508402,"sku":"8ZB2Y5-T38M-00","price":48.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/jazz-new_gfErq.jpg?v=1779739699","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/various-artists-presale-6-5-26-the-ultimate-demonstration-disc-volume-2-2xvinyl-mint-m-mint-m","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
