    Beach Boys - Little Deuce Coupe, Get Around. Crazy good SDA effect!

    Paula Abdul - Album: Spellbound - Songs 1-3
    Will make the old lady all touchy/feely.. Song 4 has a spot in it where I swear she's yelling at you from about 3 ft away to your right and looking down on you ( above the plane of the speakers).

    Depeche Mode - Music For The Masses
    The whole album. After playing Paula and before heading into the BR put this one on... Or just listen to it.

    • "Electronic music is human sound adapting to indulge technology, and for some, it feels like the signature sound of energy. New and abstract sounds over hypnotic rhythms can conjure vast soundscapes for escape, pleasure, and transcendence."

    This should be on the Official SDA Playlist. Made my wife sit, close her eyes and listen to this one. Afterwards, she asked why I had her listen to it in 'surround sound' and not in 2 channel ? I just had to smile. Stunning sound stage & separation with my untouched SDA 2a's.

    Listen to some Bill Withers and you'll get the same feelings I believe.

    I played Mr. Withers CD over and over years ago when I was given it by an old friend who made for me.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    You should check out Bill Withers Grandma's hands if that cd doesn't have it.

    Oh yea, it does!

    I've demo'd a lot of sets of speakers using that song. I let a lot of people know who he is. Also "Use me" makes me groove to it. B)

    I was dating my wife and we split up one night. I heard Bill Wither's song "Ain't no sunshine when she's gone" that night. I took it as a sign and called her up. :D

    This takes you to YouTube video above but also all the other videos to choose from below it. What a talented guy! B)
