Music for setting up speakers

the old stand-bys of tests for frequency response, dynamic tracking, depth/stereo imaging [particularly the LEDR test]. then, i'd put on the RCA red seal CD of the CSO/Reiner performing rimsky-korsakov/debussy, as that recording has a very wide dynamic range, you can hear everything in the recording [including low-level "musical sounds" such as musicians breathing, clothes rustling, chairs squeaking and music stands rustling] only on a system properly engineered and properly set-up. then i'd listen to the Telarc 1812 overture cannons to make sure your system can handle deep loud bass. i also have a Laserlight CD of virgil fox playing a bach organ number ["toccata, adadio and fugue"] featuring the most extreme frequency and dynamic range of any recording i've heard, bass featuring cleanly recorded 16 cycle fundamentals, ppp and then sforzando all stops out [deafening!]. the aforementioned pure 16 cycle tones reveal doubling in a speaker that can't handle it.

I would use the Doors First album,Vocal and music.Plus you  get the energy and loudness you need to set up the system.You want vocals Joan Baze ,Diamonds and Rust.Good Luck.

@rodman99999 I know this is an older thread but are you aware Von Scweikert recommends using pink noise for set up in their owner's manuals?
