The Galaxy CM-130 has a designated area in my PA rack drawer. I never run sound at a gig without it.

Just what you need

I just want to take care of my ears while I mix, and this gives me all the info I need. Thatīs it,

affordable SPL

Finally an SPL meter that you can pack in your gear box for sound level checks that can be replaced without too many tears if it gets left behind or broken.

Is the performance too loud... Too quiet... Or just right.
Finally I know!

cm-130 Galaxy

This unit is very easy to use. Light weight and simple. Great for volunteers to use. Would recommend this item to a friend.

Con: Slightly large size.

WORKS GREAT

My Galaxy CM-139 is a great asset for sound at my church. It showed me the dead spots in the sanctuary and was very helpful with a good balance in the listening areas.

Not as Robust as I expected

Meter works fine, just not as robust as I expected.

Galaxy CM-130 simple, affordable

I have just started using my CM-130, it does the job. Can't beat the features for the price, wish the body of the unit felt more durable and comfortable during use. Oh well, I'd purchase another.

Prefer Galaxy CM-140 over CM-130

The CM-130 is good for instantaneous levels OR maximum level but has no memory to hold the values when switching between them. The CM-140 can read MIN, MAX, or CURRENT while holding the others in memory. Of course, neither device keeps an ongoing record of CURRENT values (see CM-160 for that). Also, although they cover the same over-all range, the CM-140 is split up into three ranges, while the CM-130 has four ranges, one of which demarcs on 90 dB, which is of course an area of interest (80-100). The CM-140 also has an analog output which I hope to use someday.
