That seems to be the case. I haven't heard any reports about issues with pink noise, so that might work better. Presumably you would need "two octaves of LF pink noise" vs. "two octaves of HF pink noise" for the SPLs to work out properly, and presumably disks like Avia include that kind of content for balancing sub with mains, but I don't know that for a fact.
I do know that the Avia disk seems to work OK for balancing sub with mains, ie I am happy with the resulting levels.

My replacement EP500 amp arrived yesterday. Axiom created a wooden coffin for the amp to almost guarantee no damage during shipping. I tested it out with War of the Worlds....The Bass is back!!!!!!!!!!!! I will leave it powered on like most of you do. I'll check how warm it gets after 24 hours.........
Top Notch service............

Vince, Great news, I'm betting when you check it later it will hardly feel warm.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

I have 2 500s and I would say they do get warm on the back metal plate. Since I have 2 that behave the same I believe this is normal. They are not hot enough that you would burn yourself, but fairly warm.
