Music for setting up speakers



Im setting up my 30yr old Martin Logan Sequel II’s. I followed some ML guidelines and it was pretty straight forward. They are 8’ apart and 8’ from me. I towed them in using a flashlight and beam reflection, it was pretty easy, same for the reflection to be sure one isnt tilted forward or backward more than the other.

I’ve been listening to some Tidal tracks and wondering what you listen to to confirm your setup is right for you.

I listened to some solo violin and cello, some folky vocals, some Led Zepp just because :0)

maybe music where instruments are easily located ect

Thanx

How much time do you want to spend before listening? Tweaks and test equipment can be used later. If you want to get it up and running, tape measure and some music you are familiar with. Something with vocals is always quite revealing.
murphythecat - Your suggestion to use pink noise is a very good one. I’m not sure many in this forum understand what you are saying though. You can use pink noise with just your ears, I’m sure you would agree. Of course a mic and SPL would be better.
