some other song i found for testing....hehe
Rock>>
Tracy Chapman “Heaven’s Here on Earth”
After giving the Audiophiles about 40 hours of break in time I started my listening test with Tracy Chapman’s ”Heaven’s Here On Earth.” This track has a wonderful openness to it and a good mix of instruments. The opening 12 bars are all instrumental mood setting with an acoustic guitar, wood block, bass drum and tambourine.

Lenny Kravits “Believe in Me”
With more mainstream rock, the bass was as I noted prior, very solid. My logbook read “very impressive bass output & sound.” With the drum kit, the snare snaps were abrupt and sharp; the high hats and cymbals were clear.

Schubert “The Great”
With a good classical CD like Telarc’s 20-bit recording of Schubert’s Symphony #9 “The Great,” I can really test for a sense of space and tonality. The opening French horns were big, ambient and rich sounding; the flutes and oboes were delicate and finely detailed; the brass section was full and strong, never getting too brassy or over powering. And the violins and string… yeah, I like the sound of the Audiophiles on classical and acoustic instruments.
