The Nordost <a href=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/accessories\/test-cd.php\">System Solution<\/a> is an invaluable tool for the installation, maintenance, and fine-tuning of any hifi audio system. Arranging a new system is a painstaking and exacting task for even the most seasoned audiophiles. This two-disc set, provides you with a unique mix of diagnostic tracks, calibration tools, and system conditioning aids that will help unlock the full potential of your sound system.<\/p>\n<p>The System Solution Set-Up &amp; Tuning Discs include tracks that range from the simple, such as channel checks and pink and white noise, to the more complex and unusual LEDR tracks, timed frequency sweeps, and repeat drum\u00a0beats. Our sound engineers have incorporated specially designed tracks to facilitate full-range loudspeaker positioning and the integration of subwoofers, and have even included a number of useful \u201csystem service\u201d functions.<\/p>\n<p>These functions include degauss and burn-in signal tracks, both of which are essential precursors to fine-tuning your existing set-up or new components. Each of these helpful tracks is fully explained and expounded upon in a detailed instruction booklet, included with every disc set.<\/p>\n<p>Nordost is proud to say that over the years our products have become integral components in preeminent recording studios around the world. This has given us the opportunity to incorporate musical selections recorded using Nordost cables as an exciting new feature on our set-up discs. These carefully curated tracks highlight specific aspects of system performance and will help you to further explore the subtleties of your newly-tuned system. This also means that Nordost users will have the ability to experience performances wired with Nordost from beginning to end!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4289\" src=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers-1024x518.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers-1024x518.png 1024w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers-300x152.png 300w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers-768x389.png 768w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers-500x253.png 500w, https:\/\/nordost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/System-Solution_album-covers.png 1166w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 85vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Essential channel and phase checks<\/li>\n<li>Multiple pink and white noise signals for speaker\/room diagnostics<\/li>\n<li>Sophisticated LEDR tests to optimize speaker placement<\/li>\n<li>System maintenance tracks (Degauss and Burn-In)<\/li>\n<li>Low-frequency tones specially designed and configured to map room modes and aid speaker placement or subwoofer positioning and integration.<\/li>\n<li>Specially selected music tracks with detailed listening notes to further refine system performance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After years of great success with our original System Set-Up &amp;
