Tl Vs Ac...

[ptcary]

Along those lines, you guys wanna recommend what I do for my first time on a meter?

I plan to try Ed's bassrace song, Moments in Bass, cause it's the loudest in my car that I know of, will try Jeezy's Hypnotize, and maybe a 40hz and 50 hz tone, any other recommendations for a noob?

Get a sweep and test for your peak freq. and then play that tone.

do the sweep at a low volume, or get a db drag cd and just go hz to hz til you peak.

the biggest question that needs to be asked is which termlab vs which audiocontrol?

old termlab? termlab.net? termlab usb? audiocontrol sa-3055? audiocontrol sa-3055a? new audiocontrol? audiocontrol epic 150/160? new audiocontrol sensor? old audiocontrol stick mic?

Exactly....it's pretty tuff to give an "across the board" answer....I have an epic 160 in my car and it reads anywhere from 148-150db peak hold... and the last time I metered on a new TL it said 146.3 while my epic said 146....so it's a lil hard to pin it down with the AC mics "varying" so much but i'd say if it's a stand alone mic like an AC180/AC190 it should be no more than +5db if calibrated correctly.

Generally/on avg, my IN DASH (diff mounting location than passenger side dash/windshield mounted TL mic) epic 160 is +2DB compared to a TL.
