Dream Theater - falling into infinity, Awake, Images and words.
Yngwie Malmsteen - Magnum opus
Pink Floyd - The division bell
At The Gates - Slaughter of The Soul

Crasch test dummies - God shuffled his feet
Dire straits - Money for nothing
INXS
Judas Priest
Loreena McKennitt - A winter garden, the book of secrets

The 595 is absolutely best with progressive metall, Magnum opus and Yngwies guitar solos is just amazing on them.

Well for the price, the Koss KSC75 headphones certaintly wowed me.
Also, the Koss Spark Plugs also wowed me on how bad headphones can sound.

Anberlin - Cities (specifically the song "The Unwinding Cable Car". Some of the finest acoustic i've heard)
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand ("Take Me Out" is a great song)
Michael Jackson - Thriller
The Slip - Eisenhower
The Fold - This Too Shall Pass
Saosin - Translating the Name

I'm drawing a blank... there are lots more. Most of that is indie stuff that I am sure no one as even heard of...

King Crimson - Lark's Tongues in the Aspic Part I
Ionization (not sure who is the composer, classical percussion piece)
Samuel Barber - Dance of Vengeance
Shpongle - Once Upon the Sea of Blissful Awareness (female vocals + excellent ambience with loose rhythm, enchanting)


Thats just a warm-up I can keep on going and list half of my playlist, I love music =]

A lesser known indie band that sounds great on good headphones is Califone. All of their albums are available on emusic, and all of their stuff gets great reviews by publications like Pitchfork. I can't recommend them enough. Sort of like a cross between old-time folk and blues and modern rock and electronica.

Also, I recommended this on a different thread, but if you haven't heard Broken Social Scene's self-titled album (which came out a couple years ago), you will be blown away. I guess it would be categorized as alternative rock, but there's elements of electronic music, and even some strings and horns on a few songs. I don't know how many members there are in that band, but I believe it's more than 10, and the music is just incredibly rich and complex. There's also multiple vocalists, some male, some female, and even a rapper on one track. And almost every song is full of beautiful sonic details.

Unusual CD I got recently, Archipelago, a trio of bassoon, accordion, and percussion. Some tracks have amazing bass. I never knew an accordion could play so low. Can really rattle my ears even at low volume.

Jim O'Rourke - Eureka

Total magic outta my AD900 and iAudio

Another wow moment had recently: Nina Simone - Don't Smoke in Bed (off finest hour). I was floored by the vocals. well, seated, at least. Though someone did a bad job recording her piano on that one.
