Radio Shack SPL meter and sub levels
I've seen a few posts about using the Rat Shack SPL meter to match db levels for all the speakers in a surround system. I've used one in the past for help tuning DIY speaker projects and setting up HT systems, but have a question about it's accuracy.
The owner's manual clearly states that it is not accurate below 500hz or above 10,000hz. If this is the case, how on earth could the reading for the sub frequencies be used to level match with the rest of the system? I've consistently found that if I set the level according to the SPL meter, sub frequencies are far too loud.
Anyone else had this issue?
