What music do you use to assess your system?
I'm looking for music that will reveal shortcomings or strengths within ones system. Lets list some of our favorite songs that have: good, fluctuating bass lines, songs that have a solid, centerd vocal, songs that are super complex with alot going on, songs that test tone, songs that test inner and micro detail, songs that test how well a speaker can convey dynamic swing, and any other aspects I didn't mention.
Of course I'm not looking for one song that covers all areas, I'm fine with one song only covering one aspect.
When listing songs, please include what we are looking for in that particular song!

Lesiem - Mystic Spirit Voices, Huge chorus, opera caliber male and female vocals, epic classic and electric guitar and drums. Think Enigma to a new level. Pure power, depth, and smoothness. They have a woman singing that sounds like Sarah Brightman but it's better. This one is for full range speakers the bigger the better. One of my favorite albums. |
Strauss waltzes on Telarc is well recorded with music AND sound effects. |
i once heard gil shaham's bach partitas and sonatas for solo violin over an all burmester system that sounded truly horrible. on mine the recording sounds life like, even from another room through closed doors i use recordings i like that i m familiar with. top notch audiophile stuff sound more or less the same over many sytems. even heard them make a sony mini compo from the 90s sound 'high end' i m now actually listening to kevin eubank's eponymously titled debut album, very analog cd transfer, that didnt used to sound analog, until i modded my amps and stuff
