recommendation of a sound level meter


I currently have a pair of Quad 988 loudspeakers, Thor Audio TP 60 monoblocks, Thor TP 2000 preamplifier and a
Cary 306/200 CD player. I am attempting to cure the
problem areas in my listening room. At this point I am not really sure what they are. It was recommended that I purchase a sound level meter to help me. Can anyone recommend a sound level meter besides Radio Shack that is
very accurate and reasonably cost effective. Thank you for any light that you can shed.

When I was in the market for a sound level meter I did some research on same and finally ended up getting the RS one. Not because with was the best but I had very little choice. Yes the next upgrade from RS is way too expensive to justify the cost for which it was going to be used. RS meter does the job well without putting a dent on your wallet.

I develeoped my own spread sheet ombining the RCA test disk that I own and the results I get are very much acceptable.
