The cannons from the 1812 overture, over and over again. Did you hear that? Did you hear that? wasn't that awesome? Hang on I'll play it again, let me just adjust this setting first....

In fairness, though, the 1812 ouverture IS a pretty impressive piece to listen to, if it is properly recorded and reproduced.

While my setup is somewhat (cough) less impressive/over-the-top than the one referenced above, there's no denying listening to a proper 1812 is a physical experience.

I'm partial to Kunzel's recording with the Cincinnati Pops - those cannons are LOUD. (Better be careful not setting the volume too high or you're likely to find yourself a couple of woofers short afterwards.)
