upgrade your surround for 35.00


For years now i have had surround sound in all its forms, pro logic.dolby digital,and dts.I always thought i could set up the sound levels using my ears[wrong].I went to radio shack and bought a sound level meter[35.00]and the improvement in sound is tremendous.Everything is tied together between the speakers and the sound is a lot more realistic and detailed. If you have not used a sound level meter in your home theater,your cheating your self.I just held the meter at ear level in the sweetspot and adjusted all the channels including the subs.Some of the posters here, probably are smart enough to own a sound level meter, but for the rest of us get one now.

Thanks Mike,
I was given an analogue meter and exchanged it for a digital one, assuming it was the better model. I haven't used it yet and will now excange it again, whew! Do you know why the analogue meter is superior?
so, the digital meter is slower than the analogue readings , (If I understand Bigwood correctly)?
Or, is the analogue meter just more accurate?
Appreciate your help here everyone.
