so im tuning my amp and i need a test tone. The manual reconmends a sine wave @ 50Hz. if someone could possibly load one on the internet or point me in the right direction to find one (preferably for free...) it would be much appreciated.

The best tone to test subs with is the Brown Note....

If you crap you're pants than the system is in tune...

I use 50 hz for my subs, 1khz for my mids, and 12khz for my tweets. Not sure if that's optimum or not, but my junk sounds alright.
