    2 Against Nature and I think he's using either the SACD or DVD A which is very hard to find. I've got a couple of SD DVD As, Gaucho and Everything Must Go. They are indeed bass reference disks and much easier to find.

    Combo rig:

    Onkyo NR1007 pre-pro, Carver TFM 45(fronts), Carver TFM 35 (surrounds)
    SDA 1C, CS400i, SDA 2B
    PB13Ultra RO
    BW Silvers
    Oppo BDP-83SE

    I haven't heard 2AN, but I think EMG being fairly new material probably features the cleanest recording. Gaucho is wonderful and the bass, while clean and tight, is a bit fatter (not a bad thing). To judge your sub's musical capability EMG is just as much "a reference disk" as the other two.
