Favorite music to test your new stereo to...

I know we all have one. I'm talking that one, POWERFUL song that you just have to blast your stereo to because it sets off an eargasm in your head. The should be songs with clean beats and powerful chords...not rap.

Lets hear em sound buffs!

 

just one?

 

LoL. I'll start.

If you can find a good copy of this song.... it sounds amazing when cranked up. It excersizes all of my speakers fairly well. If you get a crappy quality download the bass gets a little muddy though. Haven't found it lossless yet.

Another one from them, a little slow to start, but I love these guys.

Although I have been known to crank up some Hans Zimmer occasionally It sounds amazing but doesn't really push my speakers like I want. It is however, pure nirvana to hear a clean system and a really amazing composer/orchestra.

 

Pantera. Cowboys from hell.

 

Korn-Freak on a leash

 

Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up

 

Ah yes, a very good choice!

Korn is some of the most powerful music these days. Unfortunately, some of their older music isn't really recorded very well. Freak on a Leash is a great song, but not clean enough for me these days to wanna crank.

All bass no filler Prodigy is badass though

Its not bad. Good chill music. I'll check him out, kinda reminds me too much of my trance days though. Lets not go there

 

Yea most of his music is really mellow but he has a few song's that will get you pumped. Those song's are just what I use when I put people's stuff in for them to listen to how the x-over points and speakers sound when I have them setup.

 

Exactly the kinda stuff I'm looking for.

 

Marry Me - Drive By Truckers

k, that's enough. enjoy

 

You guys want a test album that I cut? Basically, it's 50 tracks all about 1 minute long. I have written documentation on each song telling you what to listen for too. It's basically the highest quality recordings I could find. They're all divided up into different sections (Tuning, staging, vocals, hi-fidelity, unique, bass).

 

the devil wears prada - big wiggly style

Intro has a big enough bass drop to drop jaws... And panties

You can't really hear it on a computer, well not on mine anyways but play it on a system, you'll be surprised....

 

I would like this. I just test with test tones and voltage with my DMM. Never thought about putting together a CD of HQ songs to hear a different wider range of music. I typically listen to dubstep so I'm tuned pretty much for lows/highs and not a ton of mids.. Put on some CCR, sounds horrible.

As for what song I use after I tune: Skrillex - Bangarang and Kyoto.
