    To be honest with you... regular music is THE BEST to set up/tweak your audio... because that's what you'll be listening on a daily basis, not test tones or **** like that...

    A test tone might help you to properly set up your amp gains... but that's it... :D

    If you do a search, you should be able to find an old thread where a bunch of us listed quite a few songs, and why they were good as demos...

    You don't want to use .WAV or MP3 files ripped from a CD. They are only sampled and usually compressed. You will loose alot of the functionality that the CD provides in setting up imaging. I have heard many tracks that sound stunning on the CD but as soon as they are ripped to MP3 or .WAV file standards and played through the same stereo, they sound dull and lifeless.

    MP3 and .WAV files playing off of your hard drive or owner created CD-R are fine for very near feild listening like your computer speakers or your headphones but as soon as you try to scale it up to a different environment like your car or home stereo, you'll find that you lose a good deal of track information.

    Bite the bullet and get a CD, dude. I know it ain't cheap but it is the best way to do it.

    i dont think the bitrate really matters for the iasca cd. All it basically is is "the sound youre hearing now should be at the far right. beepppppppppp" But i loaned mine to a friend so i wouldnt be able to get it to you. might try ebay
