What CD's do you take for a speaker audition?


I was just curious about what CD's you take when auditioning speakers...

Is there a disk or two that is a must have during an audition?

I am with Eldartford. Any speaker can sound quite good if you happen to find the right material.

The trick is to try to test the weakness of the speaker by giving it all kinds of material, at different volume levels and dynamics....choose good recordings and push it until you find the limits. A good speaker will sound accurate and balanced on all music/instruments/vocals and at all levels. A bad speaker will only sound good on a portion of the material.
