Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.

A few songs I use as personal references:
"Just can't wait to be king" (Lion King soundtrack) -> highs, treble texture, voice texture, sound stage
"Silence in the snow" (Trivium) -> drum dynamics, bass texture
"Hells bells" non-remastered (!) (AC/DC) -> sound signature (fun, engaging, analytical...)
"Human after all" (Daft Punk) -> bass impact
"Piano concerto no. 7 for 3 pianos" (W. A. Mozart) -> instrument separation
"This little light of mine" (NY Spiritual Choir) -> spaciousness, precision
I have a few more, but those are the ones that come to mind right now ;)
As for non-jazz very excited to listen to 'Mr. Blue' by ELO.
I have been cured from my desire to purchase any future audio gear. This song caused me to just set thousands of dollars on of gear on fire, but will save me tens of thousands of dollars in the long run.
Thanks! ;)
