Silver Member Username: DakulisSpokane, Washington United States Post Number: 884 Registered: May-05 | Jan, That's good to know. So, do THX test tones sound different than other test tones, e.g., do they come with a slight "MOO?" |
Silver Member Username: My_rantzAustralia Post Number: 484 Registered: Nov-05 | ". . . do they come with a slight "MOO?" I bet this one gets milked for what it's worth :-) I use the THX test tones (with SPL meter) to calibrate both my Denon 2900 for hi-res surround playback (analogue connections) and my Marantz SR-7300 for DVD surround playback (digital connection). I read somewhere that the Denon's test tones weren't that accurate and I calibrate for movies a little differently than for DVD-A and SACD. |
