Which Record makes your system shine?

This is a keeper post. Lots of recommendations to try. For me, a high quality recording of less familiar or unfamiliar music is prefered over a lousey recording of old favorite songs.

Here are a couple more good stereo testers. Kraftwerk can wear thin after a bit, but wow, some of their  sounds fly all over the room. 

Ive only heard streamed version, but listening to Roger Waters Amused to Death is like an upgrade from $1k to $5k speakers or something like that. Makes me wonder why all recordings arent this good.

These are all CD, HDCD, or SACD. They all sound fabulous.

Any Pink Floyd

Any Dire Straits

Any Depeche Mode

Any Steely Dan

Any Mannheim Steamroller

Jazz At The Pawnshop

ABC

Pretty much any Jazz or classical recording

Amused To Death

Any Supertramp

Norah Jones

The Beatles Love

The Cars Moving in Stereo

The Best of INXS

Simple Minds Glittering Prize

Wang Chung Points on the Curve

Any Chris Isaak

Kraftwerk

Tubular Bells

@mylogic ,

Yes, indeed.

Brothers in Arms is another great sounding album, and their debut album as well.

@faustuss my system is irrelevant. Some records (which I listed) sound incredible, flawless, etc. Some sound disappointing. Those listed as well. You don’t need to evaluate my responses. You have great sounding ELO records, I do not. It’s not a very objective subject.

re: Paul Simon's Graceland album  - the problem is the content.... 

“Graceland album problem is the content”

And the voice. I have never been content with the voice. I just can’t listen to his voice. 
 

P.S. l have a objective compulsive disorder with.
