Classical music seems to be the hardest to reproduce accurately. What I mean by accurate is that it has a much wider dynamic range than most other music, it uses practically every instrument ever invented and it often plays all of them at once which makes any HiFi system work very hard and thereby shows up weaknesses in that system

It's not the musical content but the technical difficulty of playing classical music well that I think makes it a choice for many reveiwers.
