Default CD for sound stage demo

Hi

I am interested to hear which is your favourite CD
for demonstrating your systems' sound stage.

I would imagine a recording of chamber music or
something similar.



Why ?


"Soundstage refers to the depth and richness of an audio recording
(usually referring to the playback process). According to audiophiles,
the quality of the playback is very much dependent on how one is able to
pick out different instruments, voices, vocal parts, etc. exactly where
they are located on an imaginary 2D or 3D field.


Which is more than you can normally do in a live acoustic - well with
orchestral music anyhow.

I would suggest something recorded as simply as possible. That would
include any BIS chamber music recording. I particularly favour the
"Durufle Complete Choral Music" by the St Jacob's Chamber Choir".

Trinity Sessions by the Cowboy Junkies isn't bad either (recorded around
a single Calrec Soundfield mic).

Regards,

Roy.
