Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system

M Ward and The Be Good Tanyas always sound like they are in the room, and kicking boxes on the floor. 

Anything off the album Some Devil by Dave Matthews especially the tracks Oh and Some Devil.

Well, I'm surprised at how few members listed classical music.  I contend that if you don't use at least some well-recorded classical music for demo purposes, it's hard to pick accurate components.  Here are some that sound especially good to me:

Reference Recordings HDCD of Copland (Fanfare for the Common Man, Appalachian Spring, etc.)  The slam of the drums on "Fanfare" will bowl you over if your system can reproduce that aspect well.  Goosebump music on this disc, at least for me.

Philharmonia Baroque CD of Rameau Orchestral Suites (very realistic sound, with more dynamic drums than the two-SACD by Jordi Savall; Rameau's compositions really stand out compared to the more well-known baroque composers)

Bach organ works by Masaaki Suzuki (96k/24-bit, streamed on Qobuz--these give good soundstaging and bass from the organ pedals)

And for some non-classical picks:

The Fred Hersch Trio Plays...    Chesky Records CD--very realistic ambience, natural recording of jazz classics

Michael Stearns  Planetary Unfolding  (24-bit, 44.1k Qobuz stream)   One of the all-time best space music classics, with remarkable 3-D effects as well as much more developed composition than most works in this genre.

I'm actually a fan and practitioner of rock music, but most recordings of it are so compressed and artificial, it's hard for me to think of really good recordings in that genre.  I will check out some mentioned above, such as the Unplugged recordings that I haven't listened to in their best versions.

@audioman58 Are you really so deep into the camp that believes sound quality and enjoyment are inexorably tied to the price of your components? There are actually those of us who derive great pleasure from entire systems that come in at prices for less than your recommended minimum for a single component. Some of us actually need or want to stay within a budget. 

What I stated is just a matter of fact a linear power supply of any cost is your choice 

linear tube audio I Highly recommend .,higher quality Digital cables are also proven better by many brands.

the Ethernet switch unfortunately is quite costly to Gan a substantial increase in naturalness and musicality . I have heard at least 6 .I have a less expensive ZlHZy SW8 which is for sure better then the $30 non audio quality type.

Anything having a Wall wart is trash just adds noise and has no business in audio .

I have had several a $3k and $6k Ethernet switch in my system ,from Innuos  and Ansuz , I absolutely plan on buying one of them ,my brother has 2 in his audio systems and IMO worth every Dollar streaming is at least 15% better at minimum ,

to me it’s worth it .I am busy with home improvements , end of year I plan on upgrading a system upgrade in several areas . 40 years + into this and having owned a Audio store I know high Quality I have owned $$ 6 figure systems .

now with advancing technologies you can buy a excellent audio system for under $50k.that’s my end game over the next year. Synergy is what’s most important 

then just $$ monies thrown at building a Audio system.
