My sound level meter can be set to slow/fast reading, A or C weighting, can be set to hold maximum value and has two measurement ranges of low at 30-100dB and high at 60-130dB. There seems to be a discrepancy of around 10dB average between the reading speeds (with slow displaying the lower readings), as well as a difference of a few decibels between the A/C standards (with C displaying higher values). What combination of settings should I use to determine sensible listening levels? At what levels do you guys listen for extended periods?
