Music for setting up speakers

" AGAIN: what, exactly, are you measuring; to obtain information, regarding ambience recovery (recorded sound space width, depth and height) and accurate voice placement (whether instrument or vocal)?

What are you using for a source, to produce the signal you’re capturing/measuring, with your mic?"

Yes, Arta software with a cheap measuring mic. Arta have pink/white noise.

Ambience recovery, voice placement and proper soundstage quality is totally related to the speaker-boundaries relationship. ETC measuremets are what is traditionnaly used to understand ETC (rather the rate of decay at different FREQ)

a good room is a room that offer even decay at all frequencies. that can only be acheived (if you want more then a vice-in-head listening position) with treating the early reflections. once the early reflections are treated, moving the right speaker 30 cm here or 30 cm there will not affect ambience, soundstage, ect.

you have to understand that the method proposed by many here, which is to listen to music and place your speakers, can be valid for people who cannot or wont treat their rooms.

Ok boys, back to the original post. What music to you listen to Lol when ur setup is somewhat complete.

What i’d like to read here is what music for what reasons.

example The NottingHillbillies vocals are amazingly recorded, CSNY So Far compilation has great harmonies.

Enya WaterMark has an extremely spacious sound, almost like my HT with all its channels 

Solo piano David Lanz George Winston, i can get a real sense of the room size ect.

have fun with this, dont try so hard to be right, that creates conversations like we have, pure garbage, bored old men trying to see who knows more.

Just The Music, leave ur Ego at the Door please :0)

boys, just list a song, and why you use it, simple :o)

nothing else……..lets see who follows directions. 

Heres another, the entire Gregory Alan Isakov This Empty Norther Hemisphere, his vocals are recorded wonderfully for center image. Idaho is my fav it does everything right.

Maybe ur just to busy with mics and tape measures, do you guys even listen to your systems, or do you just “use” them like all the words im reading, come on ;0)

Christine McVie Song bird on Rumors, you can hear the emotions, so much wanting in that song, its just plain beautiful, the vocal capture her feeling, its amazing
