Negative Positive
Title: Columbia or JSP?
Review: The sound quality of these disks is amazing when you consider how long ago the music was recorded (1920's). Sure, it's a little noisy, but to eliminate it would require suppressing the high end. I think what it boils down to is this: If you object to some hiss and popping, and you value a nice booklet full of information and pictures, get the Columbia set. If you can tolerate some noise in exchange for the best possible sound, and you're willing to forfeit the booklet, this is what you want.
