Great System Setup

Very detailed review of system setup, operation, etc. Takes time but well worth it.

Autosound 2000

A must have for every car audio enthusiast! Be it a basshead or SQ oriented people. It teaches you where the instrument should be, gives you an idea of what sound-staging is all about!

Very Detailed

This disc is awesome, I wasn't far off with my own ear but this disc did help me fine tune some details in my clarity and my low end, now my system is super crisp and hits hard at the right time if you know what I mean!!!

Checking my ears

Bought this on a whim to double check my ears to see if they were as good as I think. Well, found out I'm still there. Did amps via VOM & checked my ears to see if I had speakers & sub in the ball park.
This is good for a novice and will help teach them what stuff should sound like.
