Looking to ID some great sounding cds you might uses to audtion new speakers. Buying new speakers and looking for suggestions as everything I have heard is thru 25 year old units.
Precisely, bring the music you like. When I audition speakers I intentionally bring some CDs that I like that are garbage to see how the speakers handle them.
I agree with Pdn & Bar81,If the speakers can handle the lesser engineered music well and sound pleasing, then the well produced stuff will be a breeze for the said gear, imho.
Tracy Chapman "Tracy Chapman". One of the first CDs I bought and I know it SO WELL. I use track 4 (solo voice only dead center) to compare even the slightest changes such as interconnects etc. Good range and dynamics but not "audiophile".
The key is to have full range minimal processing good dynamics music THAT YOU KNOW VERY WELL AND HAVE LISTENED TO FOR EVER!
Audiowoman, good low end bass too. I just added a REL sub to my monitors and after @ a year away from full range forgot that the Tracy Chapman CD has decent low's as well!
