Few of the albums I think sound best:
 
Janelle Monae - The ArchAndroid
 
Kylie Minogue - X (especially Nu-di-ty)
 
Robyn - Body Talk (Parts 1,2,and 3)
 
As you can see I enjoy my electro-pop haha

Fugue in 'D' Minor by Gracious, through my AD700's powered by my E7 with bass on 3.  It just sounds AMAZING!  I would have thought this sound was coming from a $1000 system.
 
I didn't think there were songs that truly lined up with your headphones so well.  I am blown away, and look forward to finding another!

Rome - Swords To Rust - Hearts To Dust
Miles Davis - Flamenco Sketches
Ben Frost - Killshot
Low - Monkey
To a lesser extent:
Gustav Holst - The Planets Suite performed by Boston Symphony Orchestra conducted by William Steinberg
 
Only reason the Holst rendition doesn't match up to the others is that I'm not very versed on classical and do not know the best interpretation of the Suite.

Can someone recommend me a song that will make you WOW for soundstage AND BASS. If you could recommend 3 songs for EACH, I would appreciate it. And by bass I mean impact and depth. I tried lollipop by lil wayne. It sucks. The only song I have in my library with a good impact is "get low" by lil jon.

in what genre? rap?
 
it's not rap, but try some Massive Attack. Mezzanine is a good album. Some good bass and some cool soundstaging.

Sound stage...I love the Eagles Hotel California from the Best of the Eagles album (has a little bass at the intro too). Try Pink Floyd Darkside of the Moon...the entire album for some AWESOME sound stage and around your head effects.

Currently Billy Cobham's newer fusion stuff is giving me eargasms. -"Electric Man feat. Brian Auger" is one.
 
Also for those interested in electronic stuff with great level of production I can heartily recommend almost everything made by Berlin based Extrawelt. Especially the tracks "Nevereverdiskotricks" and "Clap's Cally"(as found on Spotify). Minimal but very interesting and inspiring.
