L.F.E Test files or trailers

MaTTeR · 16th December 2001, 18:31

Has anyone seen a nice test file that tests out your subwoofer/L.F.E channel? I have all the DD trailers but they really don't give me enough bass to adjust my sub. Thx in advance.

You should use a real setup DVD like Avia with a sound level meter from radio shack. Using movies or trailers and just doing it by ear will give lousy and most likely, wrong levels.

Thanks for the tip. I've heard about the sound level meters but never looked into them. Looks like I know what I'm asking for Christmas
