Recently I switched from Apple Music to Spotify free/Navidrome. I am moving my library to Navidrome slowly. I have done a similar thing in the past as well.
I noticed that both times, as well as trying out new speakers, the first song I listened to was In the End by Linkin Park, followed by their latest album.
What is yours?
Edit: Holy Shit! I was not expecting so many replies. It is not possible for me to reply to everyone right away. I will listen to each of your first songs and reply to everyone.
Angel - massive attack.
Tests both the low end and the high end frequencies really well, plus it’s an incredible track and well produced
Prodigy - Light Up The Sky. Or anything else by then really.
Lindsey Stirling – Crystallize.
Tells me if I set up bass and upper frequencies correctly.
Bohemian Rhapsody. Every time.
Depends on the day and mood, but Firestarter by The Prodigy is a good speaker stress tester.
Lowrider -Ode to Ganymede on Vinyl cause it’s fun to break speakers in like a proper lady.
Unless it is faster to use Bandcamp.
