RE: What recording are you using to setup your room? nT

Hi !
presently i am in a bad situation. I had to disconnect my speakers and i am listening only with HPs.
But my favorite track is "Walkaround" in this cd in the picture
The soundstage has been captured quite well i guess with just one stereo mic.
My reasoning is quite simple.
Sometimes i read about systems with excellent soundstage that they provide a window on the event. Perfect definition.
But the recording is essential. Sorry to be trivial but a system can give back the soundstage only if the soundstage is in the recording.
There are many test discs with specific tracks to test image depth and width and height.
I would be very interested to know how the best tracks have been recorded. Which mics used and how placed.
But this is part of the know-how of every great recording engineer.
Thanks a lot.

Kind regards,
bg
