Joni Mitchell:  Blue

Steely Dan:  Aja

Miles Davis:  Sketches of Spain

Janos Starker:  Bach Cello Suites
Dave Brubeck and the Take Five album is not only a great album but has the widest range of good clear 'music' to test new equipment.  From the tiny bells and triangles to longer bass solos you can hear it all.  When that is all settled then try some Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band doing 'I'm Gonna Booglerize You Baby".  Turn it up.
