dB meter

I'm thinking about picking up a decent dB meter... as my brothers doesn't go high enough to measure my Blazer... So I'm looking for decent ones, that are fairly accurate... preferable go higher than 126dB...

RE: dB meter

I would agree that the Term Lab is the only really reputable meter on the market now, but they are pretty expensive, over 600.

RE: dB meter

only thing with ebay is you gotta find someone selling the mics / software and cables

RE: dB meter

yeah good luck finding one for cheap. I'm the head installer at my car audio shop and we hosted a stereo comp at our place last summer. The things aren't expensive and if you can't find a mic then it's gonna be hard.
