Guys,
Been playing around with speaker placement as I was pretty sure I am not getting the best out of my speakers and wanted some tips. Been using the "master set" method (mentioned on this site). Instructions here:
http://www.hifi.ir/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/master-set.pdf
which suggests using Ballad of a Runaway Horse by Jennifer Warnes on either Famous Blue Raincoat, 20th Anniversary Edition, or Rob Wasserman - Duets, both about £30 or thereabouts on ebay etc. Don't really want to spend 30 notes on something that probably won't get played much so wanted to find a suitable CD. I am assuming something simple with a solid and steady image and wondered what you guys use? Thought about something like this:
https://www.discogs.com/Vladimir-Ashkenazy-Beethoven-Moonlight-Sonata-Appassionata-Sonata-Pathétique-Sonata/release/4522482
as piano (of all instruments) probably gives a full tonal and dynamic range. Any comments on this or other pointers greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
AP
