I opted for Firefly this time. It’s got a very wide range of sound.

Its probably the worst song I've ever heard, or close to it. And he is ugly. Chick is hot though.
I usually try out SQ with some early Enigma, Sade, then some George Thorogood, Lord of the Dance soundtrack and Bach - fugue in d minor.

After all the random testing using two different IASCA disc the first song I typically listen to is Spill the Blood by Slayer from the South of Heaven album. Two guitars, loud vocals and there is a break in the 3:16 mark of the song where it is a single clean guitar and the drums come in... then the second distorted guitar... then back to the verse. If your system is right the song will move you.

Having access to real test CDs is a nice option.
