Well, I'm gonna finish installing my system this week, and was just wondering what songs you guys like to use to test out your system. Thanks.
Here is my system. The subs/second amp are goin in this week.
HU - Pioneer DEH-P4400
Front Components - Infinity Kappa 60.5cs
Amp #1 - Infinity Reference 7520a
Rear Speakers - Eclipse 8051 5 1/4"
Subs- 2 12" RE SEs
Amp #2- Orion 1200D
Wide Body Progress
I usually use Bass Meckanik, but I'm an SPL junkie. To test out the entire frequency range, I don't really know any off-hand.
The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
36 mafia - Late Night Tip
lil jon anything almost.
3-6 mafia almost anything.
my hump, my hump, my hump, my hump!!!

I tend to use a variety of songs... some heavy on bass, some heavy on vocals, some heavy on instrumentals, as well as a silence track to test for noise and a few tracks with a single tone on them for crossover tuning.
Styles of Beyond - Nine Thou
Paul Oakenfold - Ready Steady Go
Hybrid - Finished Symphony
Anything by 30 seconds to mars, their music has all sorts of awesome sounds in the tracks, deep bass, and everything really flows. Try and get their first self titled album, its great.
slipknot
Team Zero

you want to bump, then they will bump and hit real hard and a lot good.
LOL
i ain't no hollaback girl
turning lane - Mike Jones!
Still Tippin!
Naw, but for bass.. I like to use Lil Jon's "Throw It Up", also has some good high notes.
lol.. that new Laffy Taffy song is just bass beats and the words "Laffy Taffy"
I've used Metallica - One to test out a few systems, because the original master was tape, the bass on it is tremendous.
Freakin morons.... When will they learn. Hold On Not Done Accelerating
E-40 "Da Dummy"
Check it out!!!!!!! If you have a nice ported box tuned to the low 30's...WATCH OUT!!!!
I still cant find all of the rattles that seem to magically appear when I play this song.

Agreed. Also try anything instrumental by Rob Dougan. He did a lot of stuff for the Matrix soundtracks. Try Chateau, Clubbed To Death, Furious Angels.
I also like testing with these songs...
Westside Connection - Gangsta Nation
2 Live Crew - Hoochie Mama
The Lox - Ride Or Die Bitch
Good luck!!
1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
1994 Chevrolet Blazer Tahoe LT
1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S
1994 Pontiac Sunbird SE
Keak da Sneak - Super Hyphy.
I think the Best overall song I have heard for testing out a system has been Smashing Pumpkins - Ugly Billy corgans vocals and some nice bass beats
Everything LOUDER than everything else!!
E-40 "Da Dummy"
def go with that, i get those strange rattles also

i've got a few trusted tracks.
i start out with bass and work my way up a bit trying to get a good low rumble to get the gains right then i work on the crossovers so my song list usually starts out
1.late nite tip- 3 6 mafia
2. Maria- Blondie ( from there last album) its got a good music mix and the vocals are awsome for tuning the mids and highs
3. Pull me under- Dream theater, another great all in one mix it has good bass, technical notes and passages, singing guitar leads that extend up very high and great vocals.
4. anything from fear factory to test my bass response as they have some very fast kick drum parts, usually i listen to linch pin
5. the black album-metallica, or st anger from metallica. alot of punch and energy
i also have a few bass mekaniks cds that are nice and a test tone cd that starts at 30hz and goes up to 160 hz and has a sweep from 40 hz to 80hz these are very hand for testing certain things and finding your peak on your system.
