Sampler CD's for speaker auditions....


...and showing off!

Now please don't dull my senses with that pat answer about music I like and so on. When I went out to audition over 40 pairs of speakers, obviously I brought along music I loved and knew at it's sonic heights.
As usual I walked into a shop to listen to the Maggie 1.6/QR's I eventually ordered and someone flipped on the Burmester II CD for me.
Now that CD has some fun music on it and it's recording/remastering is very very good. Of course I can't find the Burmester II cd anywhere (!!!!) and only the III is available. But I was wondering what other discs, for the sheer sake of WOWING the ladies (and my wife!), match up to the Burmester CD, which is a lot of fun because it's a superb sampler.
Well? Spare me the mature answers!

Cheers,

Robert

Don't laugh...
In reviewing, and at audio establishments, I often want to hear this disc, among others:

The Best of Bond...James Bond (MGM Music/Capitol Records)
-Over the years there has been quite a diverse collection of songs with a wide range of styles - orchestrated, synthesized, pop, rock, older recordings, newer releases, etc. It's a very diversified disc which covers a lot of ground, and you'll have a great time recalling scenes from Bond movies!
