....what music album\CD are you most looking forward to testing out?

I'm looking at either the M60s or 80s and the first thing I plan on listening to is The Cure Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me.

More specifically: The Kiss, If Only Tonight We Could Sleep, Icing Sugar...ok...the whole damn thing!

I believe the first album I listened to on my own Axioms (M50s) was Sting-Brand New Day. I can't remember what I put on with the M80s, possibly Buena Vista Social Club.

When I first got my first pair of M80's, this was the first time I was seeing and hearing axioms, I remember I played Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" and as i was sitting reading the owners manual, the song wish you were here came on and as soon as the guitar started in (the clean sounding one) I immediatly looked up and smiled and said wow!

I'll never forget that!

V, I'll look back to the day(it'll be 6 years in 2 more months)that I got my M22s and excitedly hooked them up and punched up my favorite recording of The Planets . This is still usually the first classical CD that I recommend to new listeners, because it has thrilling music in fine sound and is a terrific bargain as well($5.99 at Tower ).

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Boy, I don't remember, but I grabbed anything and everything I could. I loved the level of sound that I wanted to tray all sorts of music. Current music styles I like, plus older stuff that I was into back in college (rave music, hip-hop, etc). Just grab a stack and give them all a listen.

Mine was Bootsauce's Bull album... still one of the best ever AAD mastered discs I think I've ever heard.

Mine was Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. Beautiful music!

Here's to you Mark ...

SRV for me also, and just like Mark, Stevie Ray is always the first to hit my stuff. The 'Texas Flood' CD broke in our 80s.
