Finding test tones / sine waves

[Witterings]

Where does everybody find their test tones for level matching and testing bass etc. was looking up how to test a subs phase and it seems one of the best ways is to find test tones at your crossover frequency and use a SPL App and see which one is louder.

I used to have some when I used Amazon music but Tidal, if I type in Test Tones, various bands whole tracks come up and nothing really relevant appears if I put in Sine Waves, it may just be I'm typing in the wrong phrase / description??

You will find plenty if you do a google search (Audio Test Disc) here is one example Test Waves
If you want to search on streaming services (Why, as there is no guarantee they are accurate) the search for Audio test tones and sounds.

Qubuz has test tones from 20hz-18khz @10db, channel sweeps, pink noise etc etc.

Thank you to both of you, much appreciated and funnily enough I'm thinking of moving to Qobuz as fed up with Tidal connect not seeing devices at all or constantly disconnecting when using the Windows App

I have used a few from Qobuz, but as ever please ensure you start at minimum volume. Tweeters can expire very quickly with fulll level tones above 10kHz!

Long before streaming, I used various test CDs, a Denon one in particular, and test LPs. Still use Left, Right, in phase, out of phase, etc. Remarkable how many systems have reversed channels!

From a quick Qobuz search!
