  "Rock that Body" by the Black Eyed Peas.
  Listen for clear, intelligible lyrics over the powerful, persistent bass beat.

Good luck with that, no matter how expensive your setup is.

Pshhh, you're so two thousand and late, haha, ha....hrr......hrrpphhmmm

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Ugh. Some of those choices aren't bad, but you should really use music that you're very familiar with.

In any event, avoid anything that's been mixed in the last ten years (unless its classical) to evaluate an audio system, it's all been compressed and auto-tuned to shit.

You've just made two contradicting statements. There are lots of people who listen solely to music produced with in the last 10 years, and they want a stereo that it sounds good on.

Now you would probably argue that it won't sound good on any stereo, and I would agree with you, but you can't say that it won't sound better on one than another.

Not a bad mix!
