Songs for Speaker Placement
Hi all,
I'm trying to get my soundstage and imaging right, and experimenting with toe-in, distance apart and etc.
I noticed every song is recorded somewhat differently and this makes it harder. Does anyone know of a list of good songs that can be used as reference for soundstage, imaging, vocals...
Thanks...

One caveat to using recorded music, as a metric for speaker placement: unless you receive a soundstage/voice placement map(with the recording), were at the performance, or actually recorded the event, you have no way of knowing if your system is recreating it accurately
(no reference)
. With the LEDR, you can accurately pinpoint from where your sounds should emanate(no guesswork). |
This is a helpful diagnostic tool: https://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_ledr.php The LEDR test is also available on some system set-up CDs, but- the phase anomalies, present in some CDPs, can affect the results, as explained in this Stereophile article: https://www.stereophile.com/features/772/index.html |
