Use this song if you are doing an A/B with Preamps

There are many recordings I use for evaluating gear, but I particularly like using Stevie Ray Vaughn's " Tin Pan Alley " to do any equipment evaluations ( studio version from the album " Couldn't Stand the Weather " ). Enjoy ! MrD. 

@stringreen - I just saw the Elton John (farewell tour). Was not disappointed.

I have the original 1986 West German DJM Records CD of Elton John's self-titled album with "Sixty Years On" on it. I have it ripped to FLAC and play it via Roon on my system and it sounds sublime!

Of course I have a Don Sachs Model 2 tube line stage and a Don Sachs tube amp so it should sound fantastic!

Yes the original DJM CDs are not that bad, if you must have EJ any of these are recommended over other pressings.
