[QUOTE="599GTB, post: 2071906, member: 568477"] You can have as many test tones as can fit on a CD -- whether they be in CD-Audio (.wav), MP3, WMA, etc. formats. Just be sure to have the track on repeat for the coresponding speakers you're testing (i.e. 1kHz for components and 60Hz for subwoofer). Regarding your question on how to calculate what voltage to read from, it's easy. Answer these question for yourself: 1. How many watts (PER CHANNEL) is your amplifier outputing to a: component speakers b: subwoofer 2. What is the impedance (it's more likely 4Ohms) rating of your speakers? 3. Take the two readings above and plug them into the two blank fields on this [URL="http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/setgain.asp"]webpage calculator[/URL]. Voila. [/QUOTE]
