Ehhh, I don't exactly have anything that I regularly use as demo material (not that I give demos), but if I was going to, it'd be something like this:
Opeth (progressive death metal)
Kattoo (idm)
Empusae (rhythmic noise, industrial)
Triarii (martial industrial)
or a nice progressive house mix or some dubstep :)

5. What is your favorite music for demonstrating (or showing off) your sound system?

-I don't really try to show off my system by playing music, I let it speak for itself. However, when I have friends over and they bring their own music, when the music starts to play, they pause and look at me and then the system. I generally hear them tell me it sounds better on my system then it does theirs and we end up doing some critical listening for about a half hour.

-If I do show it off, I actually use movies: "Master and Commander", "Serenity", and now "Avatar".
