oh wow, i have almost every song listed in this thread. It's funny even though im halfway accross the world from most of you that music tastes remain constant

i have a great collection of audiophile type demo discs and ive snapped a quick pic of the ones that are not in the car right now and most of these are what i basically use to tune and also demo the car

BEST SONG for showing off/demoing Car Stereo-discs.jpg

listing the discs ive pictured here (from left to right in each row)

1) the eagles - hell freezes over (has the live acoustic version of Hotel California)
2) Mission impossible - original soundtrack (german pressing)
3) Chesky - ultimate demonstration disc
4) sheffield/coustic setup test disc
5) Iasca disc (one of the many that i have - this one is from 1990)
6) telarc sampler
7) Alan Parsons - sound check - engineering disc
8) sheffield drive
9) Dave Grusin - a sheffield recording which has the most width you will ever experience in a car sound demo, it actually sounds like the recording way extends past the boundraries of the vehicle with this one

i love music and as i have said i have many many more demo discs and music on my computer and a lot of it is all collectors items and import recordings and bsides for demo i even enjoy listening to all types of music while im driving or even sitting at home and listening to my music through my home entertainment setup

This was a collection created and sold by a local store in Singapore that I picked up more than 10 years ago. Am not sure it is available commercially or on the Net for download. Did search on the Net briefly, came up with a blank.

some selected songs from A.R. Rehmaan any time. like Kehna hi Kya- Bombay
you get nice sound quality on this song.

There's this number called 'Marudhaani' from the Tamil movie 'Sakkarakatti' by A.R.Rehman.
The song's a masterpiece, I tell you.

Mine would be Bhavayami by Sharreth, his voice resonates from subwoofer through my car.

And MTX Jackhammer Test song which really shake my subwoofer!
