CD2
Speaker/Subwoofer/Audio Rattles & Vibrations Test CD

This 86-track digital audio CD contains all of the fixed and  sweeping tones you will ever need to find rattles and vibrations in your  speaker installations. 

Once identified, you can  minimize or totally remove these annoying problems and thus optimize your  sound systems in their environments...

Features:

  • Plays in any CD or DVD player
  • All tracks have CD text function
  • Easy to use
  • Produced on CDR recordable media
  • Set the CD / DVD player to repeat the track (over and over) if you require more  time
  • Limitless possibilities and hence  instructions are not provided
    • A quick internet search should provide a  wealth of information on the particular type of test that you  require

       

Check for annoying rattles & vibrations:

  • In-Car Equipment (ICE)  installations
  • Hi-Fi speaker enclosures and  surrounding objects
  • Home cinema systems
  • PC speakers
  • DJ sound systems
  • Live gigs & musical instrument  monitors

 

Typical causes:

  • Loose speaker grilles
  • Poor mountings and brackets
  • Reflections from windows, doors,  ceilings and floors
  • Mechanical and electrical faults
  • Insufficient sound damping
  •  

Tests:

Linear sweeping sine wave tones:  20Hz -  400Hz, 20Hz - 100Hz (2Hz steps) & 100Hz - 400Hz (10Hz steps)

Fixed frequency reference tones: 16 - 56:  20Hz to 100Hz, 2Hz steps

Fixed frequency reference tones: 56 - 86:  100Hz to 400Hz, 10Hz steps

 

Instructions:

  • Start off with, the full frequency sweep (track 01),  to get an idea of how many vibrations your system has?

    • And at what  approximate frequencies they are occurring at?

  • Use tracks  02 – 15 to narrow down your search

  • Finally, use the  reference tones (tracks 16 – 86) to generate those annoying vibrations!

  • Once they are  found, you can regenerate them, to fix the problem!

  • Remember, to set  the CD / DVD player to repeat the track (over and over) if you require more  time

 

 

 

All waveforms are sine unless otherwise  stated

Most of these test programs run  at maximum audio output, so make sure to turn the amplifier volume down low  to start off with
