Autoblog posted this list of songs used by a GM audio engineer to test car stereos. However, this list would be great to test most home theaters too.

1. “Don’t Know Why” by Norah Jones. Listen for Norah’s voice to sound natural, and centered in front of you.
2. “Diamonds and Rust” by Joan Baez. Listen for strong vocals, and for the instruments to be set across a wide sound stage.
3. “No One” by Alicia Keys. Listen for clarity in Alicia’s vocals and spacious background sound.
4. “Hotel California” by the Eagles. Listen for the clarity and dynamic range during the opening guitar solo, and of course the powerful drum beat.
5. “Boom Boom Pow“by the Black Eyed Peas. Listen for powerful, accurate bass beats, even at full volume.
6. “Rock that Body“by the Black Eyed Peas. Listen clear, intelligible lyrics over the powerful, persistent bass beat.
7. “Hide and Seek“by Imogen Heap. Listen for the enveloping ambience of the song, building on the openness and dynamic vocals.
8. “He Mele No Lilo” by Mark Keali’i Ho’omalu from Lilo and Stitch.Listen for the ambience and staging as the children’s chorus is offset by powerful bass.
9. “Bird on a Wire” by Johnny Cash. Listen for the clarity in Johnny’s distinctive voice, and his guitar to sound natural and free of any coloration.
10. “Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box” by Radiohead. Listen for the punch from the percussive bass, and the ring of the steel drums.

These moulds are available at Williams Sonoma.

Wow, the Fuji X100 is probably the sexiest digital camera to come out in quite a while. Details are being released ahead of Photokina, but it’s advanced compact cameras that everyone seems to be working on (Canon S95, Lumix LX5).

It features a 12MP sensor and a fixed f2, 35mm-equivalent lens. A new trick viewfinder allows viewing of image and display information.

UPDATE: It will be $1000 USD.

Now, the D90 replacement is here, and it’s called the D7000. Chase is back too, with a review on his blog and new videos showing off it’s features.
