No one else has probably mentioned this, but the Final Fantasy VII Advent Children movie soundtrack is an absolute joy to listen to (especially with my ATH-M50)

Ok It's probbably already here ...... and I havn't read the whole thread ..... but my go to headphone checks are the following 

 

maynyard furgeson (sp?) -  Theme From Star Trek  NO JOLE 

 

Pink Floyd ---- Blue Ray rip of Dark Side of The moon ...

 

John COltrane ..... HD Tracks version of Love Supreme

You want WOW effect huh ?

This is so much wow you can get from a headphone, hehe maybe not but this guys Camera does have an exceptional good microphone built in.

Not music though, but to me its music anyway. 

 

Make shure you play them in HD right ?

Haha this was awesome! Thanks for the links.

Its crazy. I asked him about the Camera and he told me that he doesnt use the cam-mic, he have custom built his own instead, that might explain why. 

nice 1

sorry if repeat

 

Rhye-Open

Kendrick Lamar-Backstreet freestyle 
 

If you're looking for an impressive sounding Christmas set, try Diana Krall: Christmas Songs. Wonderfully recorded and puts you in the holiday mood!!

Here's another one: The Carpenters Essential Collection (4CD) box set. Sounds awesome and is very christmassy music.

 

Very nice! The mic used there is really good.

I could go on for days about this, but the following is in heavy rotation at the moment: (genre - artist - title)

Classical - Couperin - Lecons de Tenebres: If you like organs and sopranos, I think you will love this.

Chill out music - Emancipator - Nevergreen: I think the entire album ("Safe in steep cliffs") is amazing, but Nevergreen is my favorite track.
More chill out Music - Beats Antique - The Lantern: Much like above, The entire album ("Tribal Derivations") is amazing, but this track really blows me away.
Yet more chill out music - Portishead - Strangers/Wandering Star/Glory Box: I really couldn't pick a favorite Portishead track, but these three are epic to me.

Folk/Country - The Civil Wars - Barton Hollow: I would not say I'm generally a country and folk fan, but I'm a huge fan of very talented musicians and vocalists. I fell in love with this duo after I bought my Grados.

Industrial - Frontline Assembly - Evil Playground: Flavour of the Weak (album): Pretty much anything BIll Leeb does is amazing, but this is a treat to listen to with top end gear.

Cheesy Pop Garbage - Taylor Swift - Safe and Sound: Hey! Don't judge, bro. I love this song... T_T

Club music - David Guetta - Titanium: Sia's vocals make this track epic.

Funny, I was just thinking of a topic similar to this, what's the most detailed piece of music you've ever heard.. And I was thinking this while listening to a Scritti Politti retrospective back to 1979. Before anyone gets bent and immediately thinks "a perfect way", or 80's synt pop, they seriously recorded some of the most detailed and layered music I've ever heard. Almost every time I listen I discover something new in almost every track.

Streetlight Manifesto - Everything Goes Numb

From one of the best punk/ska albums ever. Amazing trumpet

 

John Frusciante - Anne

Very airy voice and guitar. His voice always gives me chills down my spine.

 

use any OTL tube amp with HD650 or HD600
