You're favorite CD for breaking in new speakers...


My recently purchased speakers (Escalante Design's Fremonts) came with setup instructions that suggested NOT using burn-in specific discs. They feel that full range titles with dense midranges work best.

So my cd title of choice has been and is Tori Amos' "Strange Little Girls". Vocals are very rich and palpable, synth bass goes deep and highs are very extended. Though several cuts may have limited appeal there is much to enjoy, but hey, I've always been a fan.

All suggestions appreciated as I have several hundred more hours to go.

I remember using REM's Out of Time, Midnight Oil's Blue Sky Mining, and U2's Achtung Baby, and Fixx- Reach The Beach.

Now I guess it would be stuff like Diego Urcola, and Eldar, and Staind or DamagePlan. :)
I use all of these to "break" stuff:
Metallica the Black Album
Mahler 5th Symphony conducted by Riccardo Chailly
Tutti Orchestral Sampler
AC/DC - Highway to Hell

something dynamic and full range should be used.
Also volume set to the level you normally listen on.

Tvad, I had no idea you were into Metallica!
Black album loud is what I used to break in my speakers when I bought them.
