Dark Side Wow, That is what I always used back in the early 70's to exercise car audio systems.

Haha I'd forgotten about that
I'm also a Pink Floyd fan. The Wall is one of my all time favourite albums, and a very good workout for any stereo system |

You can't beat a bit Floyd
I'm not a big fan of some of their pre-70s work but I love most of the later stuff, particularly On the Turning Away, Comfortably Numb, The Gunner's Dream and Two Suns in the Sunset .... to name but a few favourites. Oh and not forgetting The Great Gig in the Sky, featuring Clare Torry and those incredible vocals! (which she did in a single take I believe!).: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T13se_2A7c8 Simply fantastic.

Comfortably Numb is my test track of choice, sounds wonderful (at appropriate volume) in a D2.
As for Dark Side of The Moon I had the good fortune/misfortune to get to one of their first performances (1973?) at Wembley Arena (Pool then IIRC) and was sat in the middle of the very front row! It was obviously very noisy there but also very very cold from all the dry ice.

I've never seen Pink Floyd in concert but I did have the good fortune to see Queen perform live in '86, also centre-stage and very close, though not quite front row. Wish You Were Here (the album) used to be my test tape. I discovered Pink Floyd quite late (around the late 80s / early 90s). I was working as an Audio Visual technician at the time (mainly designing and installing board room 'media wall' video projection systems, a bit like this). I needed something to test a newly installed sound system one day and happened to find an old copy of Wish You Were Here (on cassette) while rummaging through a box of cables. It was the first time I'd really listened to Pink Floyd but I loved the album and it soon became my test tape for every AV installation. The first track on the album, 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond', is a particularly good test track because it combines a gentle, quiet start that gradually builds, which was great for testing both the clarity and power of the sound systems.
