For me, the one track that got me interested in hifi was Pink Floyd final Cut track 7-Paranoid Eyes.

I was working in North Toronto and there was a high end audio show at the hotel across the street from where I worked. I saw a presentation by Bowers & Wilkinson of their newly released Nautilus 800 series speakers and this track was played 2 speaker in a hall with no real acoustic treatment. The speakers felt invisible and in this track about half way through there is a part where people are clinking glasses at the bar and talking. it felt as if you were actually in the bar and people were talking behind you. I turned around to see what was going on, only to see just about everyone else watching the presentation do the exact same thing. it was the speakers giving such good sound that you thought it was there.

I can't afford that level of B&W's but I was to see how close I can get with a reasonable budget.
