What is your reference music?

What is the record or cd you always have with you when you need to try new speakers? I'm planning on upgrading mine so I want some suggestions to music that will be good to test them on.

 

I normally use Peter Gabriel's Secret World Live and listen to Digging In The Dirt.

Try Vapor Trails....

 

ATWAS!! :codger: :haz: :D

I agree but I have never heard it ever sound bad. I figured VT would be the true test. Any system or speakers that make it sound good would be keepers...

I truthfully don't have any "reference" music. I haven't bought anything new to listen to music on since at least the Reagan years..... :codger: Anything late 70's seems an awesome choice to me.....

Admittedly, I put VT in and the speakers nearly blew me backwards..! :P

Moving Pictures - MFSL version :finbar:

 

I have the Permanent Waves edition on vinyl.

I have that one too. Great recording. :cheers:

As for reference, the MP MFSL worked fine for me over the years. I've checked my speakers always with MP and with DSotM, as Mick said. The late 70's is also a hot advice, even if it's too much of a time span to find one special record. I can only speak for myself and I use the Japanese edition of Grand Funk's same-titled album or MFSL like MP or DSotM.

Nearly forgot to mention the great Steve Hoffman remasters. Check them out.
