There aren't any. LP. Records. Now you're talking.
Good CDs to Test Your System
Hi All,
I am a classis rock kind of guy who has branched out into classical, blues, and jazz (yeah, I am not fifty anymore).
If you want to test your system's capabilities in soundstage and depth of field, what CD do you use?
Please share why the CD works for you.
Thanks,
Dsper

CDs are excellent media. Here are some things which were especially good at revealing what you're asking about: 1. Brian Eno's Apollo CD is excellent. A variety of complicated events, at various points across the left/right soundstage and forward and back are evident. 2. Gustav Mahler, Symphony No. 6 with Michael Tilson Thomas & the San Francisco Symphony is also rich in these regards. 3. The Nordic 2L recording of Ives is amazing, too -- and you can find it as a free download. Instruments left, right, forward, back, loud, medium, quiet. Here are some details: https://www.nativedsd.com/catalogue/albums/2lrr1-the-nordic-sound/ |
There are demonstration discs made by Cheskey Records. https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Demonstration-Disc-Critical-Listening/dp/B00PUU10BI |
