SPL meter: 'A' or 'C' setting?

ncstatesman

I just bought a Digital SPL meter from radio shack that I will use in helping me set up my new system . .might you know if I should I use the 'A' or 'C' setting when taking sound readings?? THe instructions aren't too clear on this w/respect to home a/v setup.

Thanks,
Angel

One is for bass and the other is for highs or full range. You will see the differnce when you switch back and forth. Well until someone writes after me and says I am wrong. LATER :rolleyes:
