Tracks that bring out the best of YOUR digital system

@grislybutter what’s strange? I have some issue with suggestions about how one has to spend X before you can enjoy hi fidelity, ie; at least $45o0 for a DAC. After all, isn’t the mantra here “let your ears be your guide “? So that should assume that your enjoyment shouldn’t be tied to the size of your wallet. I assume you understood that my original post was a response to Audioman58.

@llg98ljk sorry for not being clear. I agreed with you. I meant audiomen's post was strange about how much you MUST spend

From the live red book of Holy Cole's It Happened One Night, I particularly enjoy the opening track, Cry If You Want To, for the sense of immediacy I get from it.  I actually like the entire CD, but it is that track that comes to mind.

I agree with the previous Love Over Gold post by @akg_ca  , when I  started buying SACDs that was  one of the first ones and when I plated it, I was like, "Wow!  That was good!"  I like all the MFSL Dire Straits SACDs, but that one in particular and self titled I like 'extra special.'

Full disclosure, my preamp and amps are DIY 100% analog, Digital inputs are picore player running LMS, Bluetooth ;-)

That said, Steely Dan Aja, Alanis Morissette Jagged Little Pill Acoustic, Tracey Chapman, Nigel Stanford (Automatica and Solar Echoes) <-- By far the best sounding productions on my equipment>, Alan Parsons, S.O.S. Band, Melody Gardot, Toy Matinee.. Almost everything sounds great, but the list above really shines...

@larryi that Vivaldi track is really good. It’s not often that my system startles me with the sound of a bassoon
