Top 5 Best audiophile tracks to test equipment

The original Chesky Demo disk is great, except that it seems to be recorded at an unusually low volume, so if the power is marginal in the system, this demo disk will exacerbate the power problem.

What's great about this disk is the wide range of music, it seems to test just about everything I seek to test, all in one disk so I can shake out a component or system fairly quickly.

Seems like many of you are using early, digitally sourced, recordings as tests. I suppose that familiarity with the material on different systems, and a love of the music, is more important than the inherent recorded quality. This vindicates my use of older mono recordings as well.

The "O Brother where art thou" movie soundtrack cd is handy for its wide the range of very different tracks that give you a feel for different things.
If I have to pick a particular test track it is maybe "Down to the river to pray".
While you've got the Dire Straits out, I'd also have to hear "The Man's Too strong".
