As reviewers, we rely on lab tests (at least in part) to evaluate gear, but we rely a lot more on our collection of stereo test tracks, which have been accumulated, augmented, and pruned through years of testing experience. Most of these tunes are stored on computers as WAV files, on mobile devices as MP3 files, and on numerous CDs. These songs are the kind that we can play through speakers or headphones in order to quickly assess how well (or not) a product sounds.

Any audio enthusiast should put together a selection of tunes like this. It's convenient for checking out pairs of headphones in stores, a friend's new stereo speakers, or the audio systems you might encounter at Hi-Fi shows. You can even edit the songs if you like, cutting straight to the parts you want to hear just for testing purposes. There are a number of sound-editing software tools available as free downloads for mobile devices and computers.

In order to get the best possible fidelity from songs, be sure to buy the CD (it's also possible to digitize vinyl LPS) in order to create lossless digital music files. Or, at the very least, download the highest-quality MP3 tracks available (recommended 256 kbps or better).

Take note that your audio test tracklist can evolve over time, but you should have several staple tracks that you know well and do not change. The folks at Harman Research, who easily rank among the top audio researchers in the world, have been using Tracy Chapman's 'Fast Car' and Steely Dan's 'Cousin Dupree' for over 20 years now.

Toto, 'Rosanna'

This has become the first test song we usually put on. Scoff if you will at Toto's album, 'Toto IV,' but this track's dense mix truly spans the audio spectrum. This is usually the quickest test we've found for judging the accuracy of an audio product's tonal balance—the relative level of bass to midrange to treble. Just 30 seconds of 'Rosanna' will tell you whether a product is on the good or bad side of things.

We used to use Steely Dan's 'Aja' for this purpose, and this track is still a good choice.

Holly Cole, 'Train Song'

We purchased Cole's album, 'Temptation,' when it was first released back in 1995. Ever since then, 'Train Song' has been one of the first three test tracks played when we evaluate an audio system. This song starts with some intensely deep bass notes, which can easily push lesser speakers and subwoofers towards distorting the lows.

The tinkly percussion that dances across the front of the soundstage is a great test of high-frequency performance and stereo imaging. If your tweeter can cleanly and clearly reproduce the super high-pitched chime, struck right after Cole sings the line, '…never, never, never ring a bell,' then you've got a good one. Be sure to go with the studio recording over the live version.

Mötley Crüe, 'Kickstart My Heart'

This tune from the Mötley Crüe album, 'Dr. Feelgood,' uses so much dynamic compression that the readout on your sound pressure level meter (or the needle on your amp's output meter) will barely move. And that's a good thing because the steady level lets one judge the maximum output capabilities for products like Bluetooth speakers and soundbars.

But listen for the way your system reproduces the bass and kick drum during this song; the groove should sound punchy, not loose, bloated, or boomy. Sadly, many headphones make this tune sound boomy, and that is just plain wrong.​

The Coryells, 'Sentenza del Cuore – Allegro'

'The Coryells,' the eponymous album featuring jazz guitarist Larry Coryell and his hyper-talented sons Julian and Murali, is one of the best that Chesky Records has ever done—and that's saying a lot. This particular song is a favorite for judging soundstage depth.

Listen for the castanets in the recording, as they are key. If the instruments sound like they're coming from 20 or 30 feet behind the guitars, and if you can hear them echoing off the walls and ceiling of the large church where this recording was made, then your system is doing a fine job.

World Saxophone Quartet, 'The Holy Men'

'Metamorphosis' is a great album by the World Saxophone Quartet, and 'The Holy Men' is one of the best test tracks for stereo imaging and midrange detail that we know of. Each of the group's four saxophones—all four of which play nonstop through the entire tune—is positioned at a certain place within the stereo soundstage.

You'll want to be able to pick out each saxophone individually and point to it (yes, in the air). If you can do that, then you've got a fantastic system. If not, don't worry too much, because this particular listening test is pretty hard!

Olive, 'Falling'

Subwoofer Test Songs

If you want one of the best bass tests in existence, go for Olive's 'Extra Virgin.' We often use the song 'Falling' when testing for the best subwoofer placement. The synthesizer bass line is powerful and punchy, dropping way down to a deep note, one that tends to nearly disappear when played over mini speakers or bad headphones.

Know that this is a harsh-sounding recording if you're listening to the mids and treble. So it might be worth making a custom version with the treble rolled off -6 dB at 20 kHz.

Wale, 'Love/Hate Thing'

Headphones can sometimes be marketed as a 'hip-hop thing,' with many popular models designed specifically with hip-hop in mind. In our opinion, most hip-hop mixes are too elemental to tell you much about an audio product. However, rapper Wale and singer Sam Dew are an exception with the song, 'Love/Hate Thing' off the album, 'The Gifted.' Both of these men have smooth voices that shouldn't sound rough on any good system.

But the best part of this track is the background vocals repeating the phrase, 'Keep giving me love.' Through a good set of headphones or speakers, these vocals should sound like they're coming at you to the sides (45-degree angles) and from a long distance. You should feel some tingles along the spine or prickles on the skin. If not, a new set of headphones might be in order.

Saint-Saëns’ Symphony No. 3, 'Organ Symphony'

This may be the best deep-bass test ever. We don't mean the booming, headache-inducing hip-hop or heavy rock brand of bass. We're talking about the subtle, beautiful bass emitted by a massive pipe organ, with its deepest notes reaching way down to 16 Hz. This recording from Boston Audio Society's album 'Test CD-1' is not to be played without caution.

Be aware that the low tones are in this track are so intense that they can easily destroy small woofers!

You'll want to enjoy it through some monster subs, such as the SVS PB13-Ultra or the Hsu Research VTF-15H. This track is absolutely spectacular and something that any self-respecting audiophile or audio enthusiast should appreciate and own.

Trilok Gurtu, 'Once I Wished a Tree Upside Down'

There's no better way we've found to test stereo and envelopment than this cut by Indian percussionist Gurtu, with saxophonist Jan Garbarek. When listening to 'Once I Wished a Tree Upside Down' off the album, 'Living Magic,' pay attention to the chocalho shaker chimes.

If your speakers are top-notch, the sounds of chimes will seem to swirl around and even materialize right in front of you, almost as if Gurtu were standing between you and the speakers—and this isn't hyperbole! Put on a pair of the best electrostatic or planar magnetic headphones, and you can hear exactly what we're talking about.

Dennis and David Kamakahi, 'Ulili'E'

Test Song Mp3

From the Kamakahis' album 'Ohana,' this is a gentle and lovely recording of slack key guitar and ukulele behind two rich male voices. Those who listen to this song through lesser sound systems may not be so impressed. If this is true, it can mean there's a problem with your speaker's upper-bass reproduction, or that your subwoofer's crossover point is inappropriate, and/or the positioning of your speakers and subwoofer needs adjustment.

Reverend Dennis's voice is especially deep, which can sound bloated on most systems. This recording—the detuned strings of the slack-key guitar in particular—should sound amazing. If it doesn't, then you've got some work to do to ​improve your system's audio performance.
