In Reply to: Don't want/need to buy a Bob James recording to see how good my rig is... posted by musetap on August 26, 2012 at 11:21:59:
I wouldn't buy someone's "suggested" disc for a quick system check either if the music didn't appeal to me. However some may have it, and/or can try a file playback from a subscription service. Though the quality of such a source would be very challenged by this particular test and I would encourage those trying not to be upset if their rig fails this particular test.
To give more appreciation for the test, I heard it on a high power rig with full range ESLs. I believe that some systems I build lately perhaps would not be able to reveal it. :)
