Qhick Survey,
What CDs (disk name & artist) do you guys use to demo/test/show-off your
system? I'm looking for high SQ recordings, things that test vocals,
sound stage and imaging.


Since all my CD's are in a closet, and all my music is in either MP3 or
OGG, You'll have to do without the disk name in some cases.

White Zombie, "La Sexercisto: Devil Music Vol. 1"
Sarah Brightman, "Dive"
Better Than Ezra, "Deluxe", "Friction, Baby", "How Does Your Garden Grow"
Pachabel, "Canon in D" (No album, the guy had been dead for 200 years
when this was discovered).
Phillip Glass, "Knee Play 1" from "Einstein on the Beach"
Copland, "Simple Gifts theme and variations" from "Appalachian Spring"
Anguun, "Snow on the Sahara" (Whatever happenned to her?)
Pretty much anything from Ani Difranco, Vanessa Carlton, or Ravi Shankar.
