cheap decibel meter

[markuskidd]

I can't find a cheap decibel meter anywhere on the web... anyone know a site where I might find one?

buy this.
I have it and use it from everything to properly setting up my HT surround to measuring just how damn loud my case fans are.

I use the 30.00 one from RatShack to calibrate my home theater.

I have used those cheap ones testing my car stereo system. The results were terribly inaccurate. Moving the unit just an inch or so in any given direction would change the reading up to 10 db. But if you don't need it to be very accurate, they are good little devices.

You can fart louder than 126 dbs.....
then again maybe its because im used to 140s car subs.
