Silver Member Username: Aman2005Patiala, Punjab India Post Number: 428 Registered: May-06 | Chad, no dear. I like to hear music not the test tones. Just asking. To be honest, we have a club here of motorbikes and cars. And I am one of the admin of that club. so members ask for these terms. The questions I put here are always becase they ask, and on the other hand, I learn something from you Gurus. Because I just bought a Alpine type R with hifonics setup. So dont know about other brands and so. I just wanna know in detail why they are used and what is xover range? @Killa, what does this really mean> You use test tones to burp your car when it got gas.... otherwise it will rip some @ss |
