Default SPL Meter

I was watching Haze324's video of his Biketronics upgrade and was very impressed at the sound level as he walked away from the bike. Haze, very impressive setup and sound.

I was just wondering if any of you have ever put an SPL (sound pressure level) meter on your audio system to test at what volume your sound can get to before distortion occurs?

I have a '13 Ultra and am going to upgrade to the Biketronics BT2180 and 7.1's. I'm just looking to upgrade the fairing speakers and as many amp/speaker configurations I have considered, I always come back to Biketronics.

Mark,

Wait till you see the next video! Gannicus talked me into speaker lids sooner than I thought. Adding a few things and hopefully done for quite some time. Will post a new video next week.

As far as SPL, never --- but maybe I'll enter a local best of sound and see what it registers once it's all done.

BT --- man you can't go wrong. The products sound incredible, and I will continue to say the service they provide is even better. Pull the trigger man!
