Good CD for testing bass response

Hi folks:

Got a new set of speakers and of course going through the requisite set up and best room placement. Working on the short wall of the room and want to know what cd others have found with repetitive low bass that allows time for speaker movement to get best results. I'm sure I've got something in the collection but am racking my brain for the right one. Your help is most appreciated.

For the purpose of speaker placement I recommend Ray Brown Superbass 2.

To show off bass dynamic to your friends or to test a speaker's bass producing
capability, I would use track 1 (Poem of Drum) of the Master of Chinese
Percussion CD.

James Cotton, Deep in the Blues. There is a track thats just Charlie Hayden and if your systems up to it you,ll know with that one.

Songs 1, 3 & 9 are by far the best on any scale. It's actually an amazing recording in my opinion. It's one of only a couple of CDs that I'm forced to use a subwoofer to get it sound right.

For your needs this CD has a very constant bass line that will allow you some wiggle time.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly. Or, some E. Power Biggs organ.
