CD's you bring for auditioning


Do you also have some CD's which you use to audition equipment and which will reveal immediately shortcomings, eg I use

Buddy Guy - Sweet Tea (first couple of tracks can be unbelievable hard to listen to on some equipment

Pink Floyd - DSOTM, checkout the bass, the clocks can sound 'washed' up on some over-tubed systems

Pink Floyd - The Wall , played at loud volume will immediately reveal shortcomings on loudspeakers

and yours...

and those select cuts and elements tested by each selection would be ??????????
Thanks Rsorren, I appreciate the detailed response but I'm afraid there a few crucial details missing.

1. Which recording of "White Room?" There are probably a 100 of them.
2. Which Dianna Krall album?
4. Larry Carlton has a bunch of CDs on his website. Which one? The one that is titled "Larry Carlton" doesn't have that song for track 4. When I search for that song I find it listed on 6 albums.
5. I look on allmusic.com and find about 8 groups named Lu. I also found 16 listings for "hot blood" but none for a group named Lu.
6. I also see several listings for Shelby. Which recording by which Shelby?
