Yeah I listen to Tidal too :+1: it’s just everyone can see it if it’s posted via YouTube and yes it is indeed a quality recording :smiley:

Several of these seem to be more headphone based, so here are a couple which I rate for speakers:

Amused to Death (Amused to Death, Roger Waters)

Afraid of Time (Intersetllar OST, Hans Zimmer).

These are songs in which my speakers become truly transparent and what I use to demonstrate soundstage to people who don’t know what it is.

Also worth listening to Thriller (Thriller, Michael Jackson), which doesn’t quite have the same effect, but is still good for soundstage and imaging.

A bit of trivia, Thriller was originally called Starlight and got very close to the final version before it got its darker twist.

This album is well recorded and they play a lot with the left-right channels.
