Top 3 songs to evaluate a system

How do you listen?
@jjss49      Yup, clear mind, listen to that opening riff of critical mass by nuclear assault, and let the music take you away! No matter the music, if it puts you in a special place, damn, enjoy, as most of us do.  Bathory, venom, napalm death, h...

JBL L100 Classic or Elysian 2?? Help.
L100’s ok for light rock, jazz, classical, the woofer, does not handle kick drum, distort way too fast.  My opinion! 
How do you listen?
I use my 2nd system in basement, almost as good. I ignore the wife yelling my name, the floorboards what sounds like a 400 pound guy stomping upstairs. Few more notches on the volume, use backstairs to garage fridge for a refill, repeat. Ignore i...

Better CD Sound: The Search
Used pioneer elite dv-79avi.    Made in 06 or 08, plays as new, one of the best ever had.lucky I found a silver one! 
Thinking about a McIntosh Preamp

Tube Power vs Solid State Power
Would rather have the Carver crimson 350’s than the Sunfire or my very long wait monos from another company, and those 1st edition emotiva xpa-1 monos. 350 Watts of tube power is bada$$ !! I remember years ago, getting any amp with 300WPC+ was alw...
