How I assess a HiFi system: My top 10 test tracks

Over the years, I have developed a method by which I can relatively quickly assess a HiFi system. By selecting a few recordings (which I play in a specific order), I can form the basis of an opinion. The recordings I have chosen are not necessarily super high quality, but are each selected for a specific purpose. My tracks are: 1. Jackson Browne: Linda Paloma https://open.spotify.com/track/2eEVA9... 2. Willie Nelson: Little House on the hill https://open.spotify.com/track/3dF3kv... 3. Tracy Chapman: Mountain ‘O things https://open.spotify.com/track/45GTwV... 4. Dianne Reeves: One for my baby https://open.spotify.com/track/3l8Aks... 5.
