how do these sound in your chain?
Cécile McLorin Salvant is no joke!
more in the spirit of jazz...
(you'll need amazon prime for this)

and a choral track to clean the aural palate ...
I confirm female voices sound great, and Cecile in particular with my current setup. My favorite track is "Le front chache sur ses genoux" on the Woman Child album. This is just a splendid vocal track. I also like to to come back to Patricia Barber's Nightclub once in a while. Bye Bye Blackbird is one of my reference track. The whole album is a reference to assert how my system sounds. Now i can say it has an excellent balance and best resolution/treble ever. The vocals are sublime while a bit laid back. This is the way the recording was done and not a characteristic of my system. Again, the echos are clean now. There is a lot of depth to the sound. Really excellent stuff. I would like to hear it with a set of Maggies. But my Gallo 3.1 do a great job anyway, with deep bass as a bonus.
As as am writing this, i am really taken by Nightclub. Just a great rendition.
Live at the Green Mill vol 3 is also one to be heard. Just a slendid hd recording, which is filled with info and ambience. Breathtaking.
