I received an email from audiogon about a musical sampler to test equipment.
>From the email: "At Audiogon, our goal is not only to provide a safe marketplace for your evolving system, its also to give you the tools to elevate the hobby. This Wake Up Your Ears!!! sampler contains hand-selected tracks designed to aid in training your ears to actively listen while showcasing your audio components. While listening, you may find that you need to make some system tweaks in order to fully appreciate the capabilities of your high-performance gear. If you want to hear how good a speaker or headphone can sound you have to play great sounding recordings.* If the recording isnt up to snuff no speaker or headphone can make it sound better than it really is.* Chesky recordings are free of dynamic range compression, processing and other forms of studio trickery, so they more accurately portray the sound of music than most mainstream recordings. The Audiogon Wake Up Your Ears! Sampler features hand-selected tracks powered by Chesky recordings, designed to help train your ears to actively listen while showcasing your audio components." The link to purchase: http://hub.audiogon.com/wake-up-your-ears-sampler/ It is $5 and is available from HDTracks. I was thinking about getting it to try some of these high sample rate tracks, and who knows maybe I will find a new artist I like. I make no recommendation for or against this sampler, but I thought it might be something the readers might find of interest.
