SPL Meter

[Rick22]

I am looking for an SPL Meter to calibrate my home theatre speakers. I went to ebay and found many types of meters, I found this one, would this be the right one for my use?

The SPL Meter in the eBay listing will work and is used by many.

You can also get the digital version, IMHO, it is much easier to read.

Yes. Either that one or the digital version of the same meter.

The radio shack spl meter is fine, that's what I use as well as many others here. It's simple to use, and gets the job done.

I highly recommend this one from Galaxy Audio:

It is digital, in increments of 0.5 dB, and is extremely easy to use. I also have the Radio Shack analog, but the Galaxy Audio is my favorite.

I've used the analog RS meter. It's okay.

I have the digital RS meter and it's great to read and work with, BUT it only measures spl down to 30 Hz! Bummer.
