Tools to measure in room response


I've never measured the room SPL response.

Do I just need a Stereophile test CD3 and a Radioshack SPL meter?

Is that it?

Thanks and best regards,

Depending on your budget, I'd also check out the XTZ Room Analyzer "all-in-one-box" kit (www.xtz.se). It only runs on Windows (XP best), but is very easy to set up and use. Cost is ~$300 after shipping and customs fees.

so you've used this thing you post about? how long did it take to get yours?
Thanks to you all.

I have a laptop. I will try to use the RoomEq software. Do you have any recommendation for MIC?

FYI I'm trying to analyze the best speaker placement and also do some DIY sound traps.

Cheers,

I'd also like to see a recomendation for a mic. My laptop is Vista so I can't use XTC.
