I'm just curious as to what songs/playlist people use to test out their headphones. And if you want, maybe you could post up why you use that song/playlist to do so.

Found this one on Reddit, I use it:

Also some classic songs like Bohemian Rhapsody, Hotel California and Stairway to Heaven, although I don't really listen to rock.

The Hell Freezes Over version of "Hotel California" is one of my favorite test tracks.

Chrome Sparks Marijuana is definitely in there somewhere for me!

Fleetwood Mac - Dreams
I love the continuous bass line in the background, along with Stevie Nicks mesmerzing vocals. I like to sit back and let this song swarm me

Mondo Grosso - Hello, Do You Copy?
The production in each instrument for vocals, bass and keys are very captivating here. Etsukos vocals seem to appear from directly in front of you.

*Boom Jinx - To The Six
Epic trance classic. Supreme bass kicks, progressive synths and keys. This is usually the first song that I play with any addition in audio hardware. This or Dreams.

Mat Zo - Bipolar
Just another epic trance song for me. Good foot-tapper and midway through the song the plush bass synthy notes sound amazing to me

PIXL - Galactic Voyage
The range from heavy bass kick to scintillating highs are what attract me to this song.

Definitely need to expand my test list but for now these are my mains.
