Being clinically unable to do "critical listening" I just play my favorite albums: Pink Floyd or Dead Can Dance to see if the end result puts me "in the mood". 
Solo violin was used by my local dealer to demonstrate that the "mods" of an aftermarket mat and platter rim "killed" my Sondek. So now I have 24 Caprices by Itzhak Perlman as a test LP, but No, I do not use it for my system evaluation.

I can get a pretty good idea with the following. Heart, Little Queen. Toto IV.  Metallica S/T.  Lady Gaga, The Fame.  Tupac, All Eyes on Me. Frank Sinatra, Come Fly With Me.
