Default Testing new system

What are some good tracks to test out a new setup. I listen to mainly hard rock and can't think of any good songs to really test the systems capabilities out. Any suggestions?

Damn if it doesn't! I just showcased it to my buddies to show them the range of my system. LOL
But, "Down With the Sickness", "The Game", "Stupify" and.... "Land of Confusion" will do too.
