kiwiaudio Gunslinger Registered: 01/16/11 Posts: 86 Loc: United States	Ive lost my Radio shack SPL meter and was about to buy another one. I realized though that these meters, and others like it, only have a low end frequency response around 30HZ. Anyone know of an inexpensive meter that will go lower ? _________________________ Double drywalled, "Green Glue" treated Theater GIK acoustic treatment Epson 8700UB Projecting on a 135" Seymour XD Audio transparent screen Outlaw 976 Processor Outlaw 755 amp for Center and all four surrounds Adcom GFA 555II for Main L & R channels Behringer EP4000 for two homemade subs Outlaw Ultra X13 for REAL Sub Bass !

You can also download several difference versions to your phone for a general idea of SPL. For a lower cost, more accurate model check out: https://www.soundandvision.com/content/check-mate-spl-meter-good-measure _________________________ Music system Model 990/7500/Magnepan 1.6 QRs/Technics SL1200 MK2/Aperion S-12 Subwoofer/OWA3/Sony NS75H DVD APC H15 Power Conditioner TV System Large Advent Loudspeakers/ Polk center/Monoprice surrounds/Panasonic Viera 42 inch/Onkyo HT-RC260/Sony BDP S590/Directv Home Theater System Onkyo PR-SC886/Outlaw 7125 Klipsch RF-82 L/R,RC-62 center, RB-35 SR/SL, BENQ HT1075, Outlaw LFM1-EX/OPPO BDP-83/Directv Harmony ONE Blue Jeans and Monoprice interconnects APC H15 Power Conditioner

Still more expensive than RS but better performance. _________________________ 975/7075/SMS-1 Aperion Verus Grand Towers & Bookshelves, Verus Forte Center, Infinity Surrounds, Ultra-X12 Oppo BDP-203, XBOX360, Xbox One LG 65" OLED RR2150 w/Klipsch SCR-2
