Radio Shack Sould Level Meter - Analog Meter


Has anyone compared the old Radio Shack analog meter 31-2050 and the new model 31-4050. Any difference? Which one is more accurate??

You might want to contact Rives Audio and ask them this question. They sell a system calibration/test CD that is specially-designed to accommodate the non-linearities of the Radio Shack meters ($18 at RivesAudio.com).

On the Rives site, they have a link to Radio Shack p/n 33-4050, so I assume they would recommend the 4050 series.
I have the old 2050 style myself, and will be ordering the Rives test CD this week. I think it will be a great investment and provide far more accurate and predictable results then the noise generators built-in to my equipment and the other test disks I have (Avia, Stereophile, XLO/Sheffield Labs).

We'll see.....
