Somebody recently posted a comprehensive correction chart for the analog rat shack meter. I can't find it in the posts. Can somebody repost this and if possible let me/us know where these numbers came from. (I noticed they were a bit different from the numbers that Dr. Hsu from Hsu research gave me a while back)

As always any help much appreciated

SVS also has a handy-dandy correction chart here :

As you might expect, it only corrects from 10 to 125 hz

I wonder why Dr. Hsu's are a bit different

Oh well I will run a test with these and see how it goes

Probably nothing more sinister than the two Rat Shack meters (at SVS and Hsu) giving different readings. They're not exactly B&K

I have heard on a number of occasions that the RS meters, especially for the lower freqs are a tad bit off on accuracy, not sure, just hearsay, please Axiom police don't whip me, thank you sir can I have another.....

Most seem to recommend the analog model.
