In the book Get Better Sound, Jim Smith uses The Chieftains Tears of Stone. He cites specific passages and what the specific goal is for that passage. It's a long, tedious process most expensive audio equipment owners won't perform for various reasons, the main being that they don't trust their ears. It's easier to read reviews and throw money at the problem.
Jim also lists several hundred other well recorded/mastered CDs, a number of which he uses for his RoomPlay Reference sessions (a bargain and highly recommended). Interesting to note that very few of these CDs are audiophile releases.
