cqtama Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 if you mean the tone your loudest at yes it will be the same going from the ac to the tl but your numbers could be a few db off.

mhart Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 alright thanks, i know the TL is lower then an AC, or more accurate, i was worried that if i peak at 54 on the ac it would be different on the tl, since i've never been on a TL and i own an AC.

Boon Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Prooooobably. But the AC is a microphone whereas the TL is actually a pressure sensor. So sometimes they behave a little bit differently. Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHR Ed Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 The AC mic is prone to variations in atmospheric conditions. So The AC mic can read peak at a certain frequency when its cold and dry, and another frequency when its hot and humid. The TL is not affected by atmospheric conditions. So its hard to tell, The AC could read the same frequency as the TL depending on the weather that day you test, or it could read many hz higher, or lower. Personally, I wouldnt trust the AC reading.
