Test CD 4.1
Depth of Image - Timbre - Dynamics
TEST CD 4.1 is an extended version of Test Record 4. Contents now include six completely new tracks and a few replacements, and the total time is more than 76 minutes. In this the fourth test record, the three basic concepts of Depth of Image, Timbre, and Dynamics have been linked together as a basis for evaluation of Hi Fi equipment. TEST CD 4.1, like its predecessors, contains a generously varied selection of acoustic music from the Opus 3 catalogue, with advisers concerning special points to listen for on each track. 
    Again like its predecessors, the new test record makes an enjoyable music sampler, all the more so as it includes no fewer than 17 tracks from 17 different Opus 3 titles, most of them recent releases. 

"Joining this page's Desert Island Disc listing is the Opus 3 Test CD 4.1. It's a must have disc that satisfied our criterion: it is musically compelling and superbly recorded. What distinguishes the Opus 3 disc is the careful attention made at each session to ensure the perfomers voices and instruments, the natural ambience and acoustic of the venue is capture faithfully onto the master discs. When combined with the comprehensive liner - notes, the Opus 3 disc can really be thought of as an easy and pleasant guided tour through the art of hi-fi" (Herald Sun)
