The song, "Show you how." by Lindsey Buckingham gives a fantastic SDA effect.
I just put on Tangerine Dream - Force Majeure on vinyl of course, and I was sitting on the edge of my seat the whole time, I have listened to it many times on regular speakers but on my SDA 1C's it was unbelievable.
I have Tangerine Dream on CD, this reminds me to check it out as I've not heard it in years.Quote:

Dire Straits... umm...who am I kidding...ALL of it...!
Surprised I don't see mention of Sigur Ros on here...amazing acoustic performers that stretch the limits of musical performance. Sound good on my lame stock car speakers, my SDA's open it up to another level, heard instruments coming at me that I didn't even know were there!
Anyone local to Minneapolis will also be happy to hear that Root City Band's live album is amazing on the SDA's, without a doubt my favorite experience with these speakers so far. Those of you not from the cities that want to enlighten yourselves, there's a rare copy of this album up on eBay, although the scratch is a bummer.
Depeche Mode's "Violator" CD/SACD is very nice on SDA's along with the self titled Duran Duran CD (often referred to as Duran Duran 2, the one with the couple getting married on the cover). Try "Ordinary World", but the whole CD is nice.

:cool:
Great job tool. He is on my list.

INXS - "I need you tonight". Pretty phenominal SDA effect. Most of their stuff sounds good on SDA's though.
Pink Floyd - "Astronomy Domine". Pretty darn good as well.

Another recommendation-- Kansas: Ultimate Kansas. Instrumentals and stage spread is WIDE...... Kinda shows off the SDA technology for anyone that likes Kansas. Enjoy.
I'd like to thank the Cardas urgency foremost names will come
I don't think anyone's listed this yet, but In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida ought to be a mindbending song on SDA's. I don't have my SDA-1's setup so I can't verify myself, but the song should really work the SDA effect.
+1 on this recording. I have this and considering it was recorded live in 1964 it is incredible!!!Quote:

Keyboard sweeps in the choruses wrap around my head on my 1.2TL's. At first I thought it was the good ole Canadian THC "filter", but listened to it straight and it still happened (was a little less scary that time around....)
Best listening experience yet (maybe?)
