song recommendations for Klipsch Heresy IV's?

@clearthinker and @infection  The author of the article doesn’t give a starting point for when they think "new music" starts. To me anything from the year 2005 and forward would be classified as "new music". I think that is around the time stream...

I am not sure I agree with the main premise of the article. It is an interesting question though. I worked in a record store for years after high school to pay for college. I saw trends ebb and flow constantly. I do think it's easier for record co... 
Help me solve another speaker hum thread :)
The only time I ever got a hum out of my system (horns and McIntosh tube amps) is when one of my interconnect cables went loose at the plug. Just the slightest adjustment on the cable at the plug at the amp and the hum would appear or disappear. I...
