Pink Floyd - Echoes: 23:31 of awesome complex psychedelic music. Pair with the last chapter of 2001: A Space Odyssey for full effect. And other songs I just know very well. |

This is one of my favorite recordings and it is what drove me screaming from Shure E2cs and E3cs. Finally when I tried E5cs the low bass frequencies were no longer missing. There are also several tracks on Short Trip Home that I use for evaluating bass response. Bass wise, Short Trip Home is more or less the same at Uncommon Ritual. |
