It's getting very tiring. 4 hours ago, sir sanders zingmore said: Didn’t we have a Tidal playlist a few years back? Yep and it was fantastic, until some knob decided to remove all the community added tracks and fill it with Gangster Rap instead.

metal beat Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 (edited) Since we seem to be censored on the crap we don't want to hear. Lets be positive and list what I want to hear at the show. Nine Inch Nails - Piggy - any system that can keep up with the percussion gets a KD Lang - If I were You - the bass line on this is wicked, sounds bloated and ill controlled if not played well Rufus Du Sol - Brighter - top to bottom coherence is the key as this is a BIG sounding track. Smashing Pumpkins - Zero - this distortion from the guitar makes most systems sound broken - but as we that go to live concerts know, being able to control distortion puts everything at a distinct advantage. Dire Straits - News - Pick Withers drumming on this is world class and should not sound muffled or indistinct LeftField - Open Up - Johhnny Lydon singing techno - what could go wrong this will sort out any system that cannot do bass . Prince - The Truth - this should sound just about the best you have ever heard anything. Just Prince and his guitar Midnight Oil - Armistice Day - Peter out in front with Moginie's keyboards create a vast depth that no light jazz has any hope recreating Grant Green - Nigeria - jazz guitar at its best many more, but that may become boring Edited March 5, 2022 by metal beat 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal beat Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 (edited) Nine Inch Nails – The Downward Spiral - the best rock recording of all time? YES. never been as loud as it was tonight the recording is so good it literally has no distortion but max dynamics . Test one's system or break it - Yes.

D.K is de rigueur of course. But slightly left field from the obvious showstoppers above that it has to be said, truly reveal the elements in a good system that brings out from the punters that lovely descriptive that every salesman likes to hear..."the music... OMG, it's very resolving isn't it in this system or is the system actually resolving?" These old favourites do this but we need to move on occasionally. So after the obvious match winners... lets try this in each and every room at this years Show. If the punters back out of your room in droves after you put this on(Amsterdam is the obvious first go to track) then your doing something wrong and you can't blame the room. You know it makes sense. Quote I am told exhibitors ARE watching this thread. Yes, yes they are and they're all madly scrambling to grab some good copies of the above classics. I can assist if the rarer album at the top proves a sticking point in proper presentations and sales are hanging by a thread on the presentation of she who was obeyed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill451 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Always like to check out some gear with “Calling You”. I’m not sure what it measures but if it gets this right I’m pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awayward Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Terrific definition on the upright bass, beautiful female vocals with background vocals from both male and female singers that should be distinctive, and a soundstage that will impress. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Ruiner drops into that distorted Pink Floyd section then drops back in with the industrial drums… stellar. On my big JBLs you can feel the air move in front of your face. Something that will sort out the systems that can image well AND play bass properly at the same time is this: And if you want to just physically assault the audience with impeccably produced, visceral electronic music, you really can’t go past this: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
