| A good CD to have to gauge the ability of one's system. A must have. It was one of the best CD made based on the available technology at the time. |

| Sounds excellent on the stereo. Only concern is that it could be a little bit longer for the price. |

| I bought this when it first came out. I used to surreptitiously put it on (with volume set high) when I had people over to my apartment. Amidst the conversation they usually wouldn't notice the relatively quiet outdoor noises, then suddenly an airplane would roar overhead shaking the walls, and they would be startled and burst out laughing. It was a pretty nerdy trick but fun. |

| There are a lot of bad "Sound Effects" CD's out there. Most are transparent rip-offs of the BBC's multi-volume public domain set, only with bad transfers, digital noise, and bad cut-offs.
This isn't one of them. This CD is a gift-pack of period vehicles (horse-drawn, mostly), with a leavening of other period sounds, all clear and detailed and just ready to be dropped into a video or used to set the stage in a theatrical production (which is where I've reached for this CD, ...

| Over the years, I've bought a lot of test Cds. I thought the creative peak had been reached with the 1992 release of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test CD from the fine people at Crotchrot Ltd but boy was I mistaken. During my nightly bubble bath I popped The Ultimate Test CD in my player, and I was swept into dimensions I had only read about in Star Trek novels. Bravo! |

| My friend got this CD (note it's a CD) so if you want to accurately set up a Dolby Digital/DTS system this is not the way to go. If your a beginner or don't really care how your set up sounds then go for it. Everyone else should get Avia Guide To Hometheater or better yet Digital Video Essentials, both sold right here on amazon.com. |
