I have used this to set up my home system...was pretty accuarate compared to the one a pro used to do the final tweaking.

Hey,
Umm.. well ur links broken, but I found the DB meter. I'm scared, it looks like I'm going to break it. How high does it go up to?

In a mans world, you can't be using baby toys.

I wouldn't waste your money on those cheap meters, they go up to 139.9 or lower, but its def not accurate, its more like to test if your gf is talking to loud.

And to answer your question about how i got referred here; the answer is a little leprechaun named sean built a box for me a couple months back. I just asked him for just a basic box that would maximize SPL. When I picked it up, it was way above my expectations. He build me a 250lb monster which is rattling my car apart one piece at a time.
So he told me to check out this website if i ever wanted to get it tested. Just for peace of mind.
Would you want to hook up with me in the near future whenever you're not busy and do some testing?
PM me to set something up.

Thanks alot.
Leprechaun? Weres my Lucky-charms you ***-clown....stop bye the shop some day
