Tin Pan Alley and Thanks to You- which speakers play the tap on the snares the best?


Looking for speakers that bring out the tap on the snares the best. Thanks!

Back in the day when I was in the business, "Tin Pan Alley" was used for demo in audio stores, at audio shows, and when I was in a client's listening room / home. I also used it, and still do, when evaluating a new piece of gear, such as another power amp, which I often swap out with another. My system as a whole, showcases very well, intricacies of every recording I play. Once the speaker and room do well, everything down the line contributes to the final outcome. Enjoy! MrD.

The problem with Tin Pan Alley is that it sounds good on most anything of quality.  But, it is a nice demo tune and certainly can show the differences in equipment.

In this case, what this demonstrates is the difference in "snap" between the Yamaha RX-Z9 RECEIVIER in "Pure Direct" mode, and the Melton P/P KT-88 tube integrated amp rated at 80wpc (no feedback).  Source is an SACD on an Oppo BDP-95.

The difference is really obvious.  These were recorded on a Nikon D750 DSLR and the tracks are within 0.2 dB using pink noise.
