every single music CD I have do not have the same output level, so I don't think I should use them as reference. White noise have a flat FR across the entire range so I'll be using it. :-)

speaking of remastered/re-released cds, has anyone bought the new 2-disc London Calling set yet? I'm wondering whether the sound quality is a drastic improvement (though i'll probably buy anyways, since it has 4 previously unreleased songs)

demasoni,
Use pink noise always for calibration. Equal energy per octave. Using white noise will produce an exaggerated and gradually climbing high-frequency output. If you used that for equalization or calibration, and then played music, the highs would be dull and rolled off.
