is 125 Db from a Radio Shack DB meter good?


Recommended Posts

My setup us 4 Xplod 10's On 900 watts rms in a sealed rear facing box. At 50 Hz i hit 123 db, I hit 125 db on Pete Pablo - Vibrate. I know that the mic is accurate within 2 db. It was measured at the Dash . I am Going to be Building a Transmission line for my next setup.

meter from radio shack? not to be a dick but they are crap IMO, but if u just want something to get an idea of something is louder or not then it will work fine. I think its off more than 2db

1 3500d AQ amp

Yeah me and a Friend are just really starting to get into audio and I am building both of us new boxes . We are just mainly going to compare our scores to our new boxes when they are finished. We didnt want to spend big just yet on a TL .

I wouldn't put much faith in a meter that limits you to 125db max.

Yes it may be cool, but hopefully you'll be louder than that in the first place ;)
