Just some warning for you, not sure if whoever sold you the speakers told you (providing they are brand new): You will have to play those speakers at a decent volume for about 20 hours before their true 'character' will shine through. It takes this long to work the speakers in.

If they are second hand disregard.

P.S Tim, how did the install in the car go after I saw you?

Special mega edit: http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3406171/...d_DTS_Demo_DVD

Has the visual and audio sides covered. I haven't used it before so can't vouch for it, it's just something I searched up quickly

I have a genuine original copy of the Alpine f#1 Status disc ( perks of having a mate who is well known in the Queensland car audio scene with his old car), he sent it to me when he sent me my new setup in my boonger wagon.

It is recorded in HDCD ( High Definition Compatible Digital), that has an absolute clear images on it. includes resonance checks, phase checks, white noise, think it could have a few sweeps etc too. I could possibly burn this at 1-2 speed if your keen, and send it up.

If you want it send us a pm with your address.

Pete.

I have a DVD that I use for my tuning that you can have a listen to and burn you a copy its not all good quality but most of it is.

Also I have beegees one night only concert that ROCKS on the bose Lifestyle 48 system in our home theatre room more than welcome to borrow that!

Alternatively I can get hold of the new Alpine Demo disc of our rep ?
If that helps.

Cheers Phil
