Had a fire, so I'm in the process of rebuilding my HT.
One of the things I did when I set up my original system was to grab an SPL meter from work and use it to set levels.
One thing I noticed after I was done was that my subwoofer seemed really loud compared to the rest of the sound levels, and I tried to match SPL reading for it to the other speakers. Since my meter monitors from 1000 hz at the "center" freq.,,, this didn't seem like the right thing to do.. since the sub was crossed out at ~80. I "ear tuned" the sub and lived with it... but is there a better way to accomplish sub level setting with a meter?? From the specs I read on the RS models,, they are built the same way as the one I used from work.
The other option I considered was recommending that we needed a freq. specific meter at work,, but they're about $3500 or so,,, didn't think that recommendation would go over well with my boss, so dropped that one.... *grin*
Help,, I should be to the point of installing in fairly near future,,, once I've got a house again anyway.
Thanks
