A friend's father (a sound engineer) used to say Orbital II (Brown) is 
the bomb for checking a system.

As far as feeling out the stereo imaging of the system, I highly recommend
brinkmann's remixing of mike ink's studio one or his remixing of hawtin's
concept 1

Yeah I was going to try to make say an 8 track cd to use. Wanted to get some
different inputs

That's a really interesting question.  My answer is that it would differ 
from person to person, I'd say pick a few different tracks that sound 
different from each other and with which you are quite familiar, then make 
them all sound their best on the system and you should be golden.  No?

I would strongly recommend that you not really worry about that sort
of thing.  It's not important.

I think the Tuss album is actually pretty valuable in terms of
frequencies all over the place and pristine recording and mastering.
