[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8726736, member: 614752"] You would need to buy additional hardware for RTA (full audio frequency spectrum and <120dB). These pressure sensor types that we use in DB Drag type competitions only work below 100hz and are designed to measure very high sound pressure (up beyond 180dB). RTA is what you'd be after for dialing in your home theater or live music venue. If you're just measuring noise floor in a factory for OSHA or whatever there's cheaper SPL meters that should be accurate for that sort up thing below 120dB as well. The other thing with termlab is you will need a PC to use it. I sold mine several years ago when SPL Lab came out with their bluetooth sensor that all you need is Android tablet or phone to operate. I believe they also make RTA sensor (sold separately). SSA also has pressure sensors that are likely good quality, not sure what options they have though. Otherwise, Termlab is a high quality measuring device and it is the standard used by the big competition organizations. Not cheap, but definitely not a toy. [/QUOTE]
