I usually take 4 or 5 CD's with me when I audition equipment.  The main one that I always take is "Another Lifetime" by Simon Phillips.  It is well written, well played, and very well recorded.  It is also very representative of the type of music that I mostly listen to.  A few years ago at Capital Audiofest, I got them to play it in the SVS room.  In the five minutes that it was playing, three different people walked over and picked-up the case to look at it.  I'm about to go on another speaker quest and it will be with me.  My current speakers just don't move me anymore.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmyhVCG8Pes&list=PL0B4E1E95A6E1B81F
