There have been a few threads recently discussing bass response, measured and corrected rooms & systems and so forth.
Which has led me to this. No matter how objectively you have set up your listening room and system at some point you have to subjectively sit and listen to it.
So purely for a bit of light fun I am posting a list of what I consider good low frequency testers. Granted this is a small selection based on my own personal taste - nevertheless I find these particular tracks to be my go to tracks when subjectively evaluating a set up.
This selection will test both bass control and perceived tonal evenness as well as weight and impact in a completely subjective way.
It’s music I’m extremely familiar with so you can all add your own personal favourite testers. Who knows maybe someone will discover some music they haven’t heard before and like it?
Feel free to add your own essential low frequency evaluators if you like.
Here is a list of mine feel free to look any of them up, it’s quite a varied selection. Remember this is just a bit of fun! If I can get my system to play all of these well without being over blown or lacking then I’m happy.
White Stripes - Ball & Biscuit
Robert Miles - Red Zone
Madonna - Vogue
Pomplamouse - Sweet Dreams/Seven Nation Army
Taylor Swift - Look What You Made Me Do
Lorde - 400 Lux
Dire Straits - Money For Nothing
Buddy Holly - True Love Ways
David Bowie - Let’s Dance
Dave Brubeck - Tokie’s Theme
Tobok - Aber
Electric Youth - Innocence
Phyllis Nelson - Move Closer
