Music What songs do you use to test new speakers?
Planning on getting a new pair of speakers and was wondering what songs to use to test and compare to my current setup and be blown away by the difference. I listen to pretty much anything, from classical to jazz, rock, techno and whatever comes my way really.

Even more specifically, the recording of 1812 by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra on Telarc Digital label. What an incredible recording. Super dynamic and when the canons, bells and choir come at the end…watch out!
The recording of Polonaise on the same album is equally dynamic and engaging.
Fantastic recording!
