Jim,
I find that all the acoustic Harmony/Diva/Velvetone records (1925 to 1930) have a strange boxed-in sound that is very different from the pre-1925 acoustic sound. And I have no idea why this is the case.

Thanks for posting them!!!
Rocky, I actually think that they do sound fabulous for acoustic recordings. They have a certain smoothness that I generally find very charming.

I tweaked them a bit further, thinking I could get a better sound from them.
'Rollin' down the river'
'There's a wah-wah gal in Agua Caliente'
I hope you agree!
