Four years later, and these instructions still work. Just installed mine today. Thankfully BC now includes the graphite exhaust seal when the send the set. Didn’t even have to remove the passenger peg on the left side. And yeah…they sound much better, breathe better, and without the CAT, the whole beautiful T120 is an exciting experience.

@thanhto3023 2 года назад

How loud it is compare to stock? I want to install something quiet but distinguishable from the stock pipes

@michaelrheiner2415 2 года назад

@@thanhto3023 the BC pipes are a refined sound, but definitely more noticeable in terms of volume than stock.

Sir Stuart. I have discovered a new financial phenomenon that is sweeping the world of Bonneville owners. I have found that my bank balance is inversely proportional to the amount of time spent watching your reviews . That being said the smile on my dial is proportional to hours spent watching . I’m the luckiest man in the world as my wife loves watching your videos and even paid for the sleeper pro’s due to arrive next week. You are my hero .

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

LOL thank you Ian im so flad you enjoy the videos, and you most certainly are a lucky man! Thanks for the comment!

@LowAltidude 6 лет назад

Just put the Sleeper Pro silencers on my '18 Bonne T120. It still has the cat (until I get my x-pipe) but the new pipes still gave it a whole new sound. It's a little louder both at idle and on the throttle but it doesn't have that "talking through a mouthful of cotton" sound anymore. That, and the tone is throatier between 3k & 5k RPM. My only complaint is I can no longer get the side stand down with soft-soled shoes on because the peg is mostly under the pipe now. As for adjusting the chain, the improvement over the stock silencers is marginal when the bike is on the center stand, but it's a lot better with some weight on the suspension. In fact, adjusting is no problem now, especially with 12mm & 13mm angle-head wrenches.

@billyclinton1885 4 года назад

Can you hear the exhaust at 50 or 60 mph cruising speeds? That's my only complaint with the stock pipes. Its all just wind noise at those speeds and i worry these may be the same.

@freddoon4454 6 лет назад

GREAT SOUND ! ! LOOK INTO "NOLOGY COILS AND SPARK WIRES " COILS 40K OUTPUT, AND WIRES HELP EVEN MORE ! THEY ALSO HAVE A GREAT SPARK PLUG, OR "BRISK EVO " SPARK PLUG IS ALSO VERY GOOD ! WITH STRONGER SPARK, THE BURN IS OVER 3-5 ° ATDC, THAT AND YOUR PIPES, DE-CAT, AND BETTER AIR FILTER , ITS A MORE POWERFUL BIKE ! YOU WILL BE LOOKING FOR SMALLER REAR SPROCKETS !

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I shall look in to it Fred thanks !

Hi, thanks for this nice vid. Was wondering what brand are your bar end mirrors and if your satisfied? Looking for the exact same one for my t100 with a 1" handlebar. Thanks

@johanneuringer8201 4 года назад

Hello Stuart, i very much appreciate your profound expertises in your vids. I also have the T120 Diamond and i am considering to build in a new exhaust. I saw your vids about the predator pro shorty and the sleeper pro. Which one of the two would you recommend (using with an x-pipe)? I asked my Triumph dealer and he would not recommend any of those two because they seem not to have european registration/permission/operating permit, instead he recommended the Remus exhaust. Do you have any permission problems of the PROs in the UK or is there anything you could recommend in this regards. Any advise is greatly appreciated hope this is ok to ask and hope you read my comment

@Kito66j1 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart. Awesome as always. I figured that gas consumption would improve. So 12 miles more per tank on the long run is an improvement indeed. I would love to see a follow up video in the future in regards of chain adjustment. Overall the bike looks great, sounds great, but still looks very classy.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Already have plans to change the chain and sprockets for something a little more exotic in the future Kito! not sure when but keep looking in! yes general riding around i used to get about 66 imp mpg. notice whilst riding to the location for filming this video about 7 miles or so it climbed to 70.1 imp mpg!

@vipulkumar1034 5 лет назад

Hi Stuart i was looking around for videos on exhaust systems and came across your clips. You are doing a fantastic job. Your videos are really nice with lot of information. Its superb. I own a Bonne T100, 2015 model, liquid cooled, EFI. I am looking at changing the stock exhaust with an exhaust which sounds better and deeper than existing stock exhausts. Would really like your expert advice on this if possible. Thanks

@jamesmunoz6970 6 лет назад

New subscriber, I love your video collection on the T120! Along with these new silencers, do you still have the X-pipe installed?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you im glad you enjoy them and Yes James, the x-pipe is still there , it is the complete performance package! thanks for watching!

@chuckdiego719 6 лет назад

2017 T120, I watched many exhaust vids. For my bike before choosing the British customs sleeper pro. They were great to work with. I had my mechanic install a power Commander and decat system. The bike sounds better with this exhaust and is just a little bit louder. The performance that I have now makes this bike so much fun to ride! It’s tough to choose an exhaust from a video. If you want performance in a little bit more sound this will be perfect. I also have a triumph 800 XRX and I watched videos to choose a pipe and ended up with the two brothers slip on pipe. For me in real life the two brothers sounded great but it is just extremely loud and gives me a headache. Yes I do ride with earplugs. Great video thank you. .

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

LOL thank you sir!

@dennisbuckley 4 года назад

Nice pipes, beautiful bike and another excellent, detailed step-by-step video with plenty of top tips 👍 Might be worth adding to have somewhere or something suitable on/in which to place the Triumph pipes immediately upon removal to avoid them getting scratched.

@hopgood007 6 лет назад

Hey Stuart, that correspondence course with Mr Spielberg is certainly paying off. Great video and doesn't she look sexy now! Unfortunately your video last week sparked off a number of debates in our crew room about re-mapping the bike when changing anything to the exhaust system. Our resident aircraft techie is adamant even fitting the tips requires a re-map to make the engine run properly? Thanks again for a superb video. Soon as we get a dry Saturday I will be fitting my world famous brass tips. All the best sir.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hey Paul thanks very much yeah steve has helped me a lot but i dont like to name drop! lol, tell your techie hes a bit out of date! in 2014 EU directive ruled that motorcycle manufacturers could no longer offer remaps that would enhance the performance of new vehicles. So Triumph had to install a learning ECU in new models that could adapt to any changes to intake and exhaust systems during the life of their motorcycles. stick your tips on, start her up, dont rev her just let her tick over and wait for the cooling fan to kick in. During that time the ECU will have collected data from the o2 sensors and will have made the required adjustments to fuel mapping for her to run correctly! take her for a gentle ride to make sure all is ok then you will almost certainly be good to go. ive done it 4 times now for air filter,tips,decat, andnow the sleepers!

@sheldonpaula 6 лет назад

I noticed you did not use any high temperature sealant around the union. Is there a reason for that? I just ordered the Predators myself today as they were on sale and it was the look I fell in love with during my T100 days. Now the only two things left to address are the dreadful stock seat and and some bar end mirrors.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Sheldon, thee is no need for sealant, I put new graphite seals in and they work perfectly. good choice on the predator pros! thanks for watching!

@dnemes05 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart, I recently had the motone x pipe and british customs predator pro pipes installed on my T120 and the popping on decel is now very loud. It is just as loud as the exhaust note under acceleration. Do you experience this with your decat/exhaust set up?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thats quite normal Mr Animal, I quite like it myself! if it bothers you a Booster Plug will alleviate it some what but will not dial it out completely!

@musingswithmgl 6 лет назад

Awesome as always. I’m really loving the exhaust tips on mine so probably keep those. But I’ll look a these when I change my mind. Also is there a reason you can’t do an x-pipe and the exhaust tips?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I really loved mine too just for the look if nothing else! (although they do sound nice too! i think combined with an x pipe they would likely be way too loud. and lack of exhaust modulation might affect performance.

@WEEGIMEDIA 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart thanks for another informative video , spoke to square deals and the sleeper pros as they said are silly money at £799 . Wanted to ask , you had the BC exhaust tips on before and they don't have any performance enhancing advantage compared to the sleeper pro's so was it an esthetic decision to go with the sleepers or more the performance advantages ? Thanks .

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

im afraid there is no performance gain with the tips hence the sleeper pros! thanks for watching.

@johncrispin2118 6 лет назад

Thanks Stuart another informative and interesting video, but the price … ouch !! nearly 700 US and that is before uk import tax ? That is big money surely someone can construct a similar can on this side of the pond please.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I believe you get what you pay for John. The quality of these really is very, very, high and That HVO system makes a huge difference. these nothing i could find that comes close at the moment for looks and performance, thanks for watching sir.

@Scooterboy_1970 6 лет назад

Are these available for the T100. You say it’s been de-catted. Did you have to get it re mapped after de catting?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

yes i believe they do have a version for the T100 check out their site, and no there is noneedto remap.

@motoristan7707 6 лет назад

man lucky you in the UK here in Germany I would get my bike confiscated if I would have a pipe without that E-number I have one from QD on my heavily customized 2009 Speedmaster they are Loud but fine because of the number but still If I would put something on without that I would get into trouble even if it would be more silent one of my friends bike got confiscated even though he had stock pipes on but police suspected him to have manipulated the exhaust which he didnt so yeah I enjoy every minute outside of Germany with my bike especially the Czech republic has great roads. BTW Great video and great sound you have there I love it!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

How oppressive! im glad i dont live there, my bike would be confiscated in 5 seconds flat! Thank you for watching.

@threethrushes 6 лет назад

Shout out to Czech! I am in Prague and it seems, the only biker riding in Winter. Where do you go in Czech?

@motoristan7707 6 лет назад

I always go more to the east of Czech like Ostrava, Frydek Mistek and the area aroud Brno.

@paulongley2033 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart Just love what you have done !very very nice set of pipes. Will this modification change your insurance ! (I e) will you have to inform them . In case it makes your insurance invalid . Keep up the good work ,great video as always already looking forward to the next one Regards Paul

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Paul, thank you! yeah i did give them a ring to enquire but they said i only need to inform them if the engine is modified, exhaust doesn't count apparently!

@terryhaught9976 6 лет назад

Stuart l've got Norman hyde silencers on my t100 and love the sound but the workmanship is not nearly as good as the British Customs!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Terry, yes i had a look at them myself and wasnt very impressed with the quality, i think Norman Hyde are still churning out the same sort of stuff they were making back in the 80s and although i prefer to buy British they just were not up to the standards you would expect for what they charge.

@tonyrobins5417 Год назад

hello Stuart, did it pop and bang on overrun ?gr Tony

@mikedempsey7804 6 лет назад

Stuart, I have always enjoyed your reviews for the Triumph T120. I have had 39 motur-psykles, and looking at your video's, I may have fallen in love with the Triumph Bonneville! Just something of a classic bike that has some old school things, modern things, and what you brought to the table is - the British method of doing things...not always right, but make the bike what it is. Thanks for taking the time to make the video's, edit them, and publish them, we appreciate that very much!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you very much Mike im glad you enjoy them!

@randyallen2771 6 лет назад

Definitely a step up from those Motone tips but how about some numbers, like HP from dyno runs, and cost?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Randy, Prices often change so ive learned not to mention them now. But there is a link above for you to see the latest price yourself. and as for the Dyno, this channel is costing me a fortune to in and im afraid i just cant justify the additional cost at the moment.

@iivaridark6850 6 лет назад

It looks very good and as what I can tell sounds too. Well, most important is what kind of sound comes to the rider's ears naturally in a riding situation engine working at a load. Oh, and the beginning was Real Art!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you mr Dark, yes you can certainly hear them while your riding. thank you for watching!

@pritulaag 6 лет назад

I won't lie, at first watch, I thought the original silencers sounded better. But, after clicking back and forth a few times between sound bites, and listening to you talk about how you felt the old silencers sounded, I totally agree with you! I can't wait to start modding my T100 this year!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Yes thee is very little extra volume its the quality of the tone of the exhaust that makes the difference. If you listen to the originals the sound is very uneven and the sound meter fluctuates a lot more. Thank you for watching sir!

@bencannon4714 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart, another cracking vid as usual, I was just wondering, what was it that attracted you to these particular pipes, over anything else? Say the Norman Hyde Togas or the Remus Slip-ons for example?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Ben, good question the Remus for me didn't have the right styling. Norman Hyde in my opinion come close but are poor quality, mild steel instead of stainless and the chrome is quite shabby on the examples ive seen.

@johnmfjw 6 лет назад

Another great video I really like all the mods you've done to your Bonnie. In my opinion there is just one thing that would make it complete and that's the front brake discs, the spiral effect looks out of place.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I dont mind them John but i know where you coming from! Thank you for watching sir!

@mrrose6289 6 лет назад

Lol I was waiting to see if you had chosen the Remus exhaust but the BC Sleeper pipes are a very good sounding set. With your X-pipe they'll REALLY growl. 👍 Top notch Mr. Fillingham!

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you Mr Rose i am rather chuffed with them. thank you for watching sir!

@bhupen80 6 лет назад

Another Fantastic Video Stuart. Love the choice of exhaust. They are my favorite as well but a bit expensive imo. It’s a shame they stopped doing them in Matt black. Looking forward to your next upgrade. Keep up the good work

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you Sir! i will try my best!

@johnwright6995 6 лет назад

You don't think your bike is running lean because of the improved fuel consumption because if it is the piston crowns get to hot and could lead to holed pistons how much can the ecu rectify any fuel issues by it's self without a ecu remap just wondering years ago had a gs1000 put a Harris race pipe on the bike didn't up jet the carbs ran to lean blue holes in pistons 2 and 4 I know edu are different but just curious

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi John, i did look into this prior to ordering, as long as you follow the acclimatisation process after any intake or exhaust modifications the adaptive ECU should make all the required adjustments to fuelling. i have not heard of any problems occurring so far and this is a common modification. the lower fuel consumption is probably down to the engine not having to work so hard against back pressure!

@johnwright6995 6 лет назад

stuart fillingham thanks for the reply Stuart great videos very informative the Bonnie looks and sounds the business only had one British bike back in the early eighties a bsa 250 starfire terrible bike but my next bike will be a trumpet

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Erm sorry i forgot to weigh them!

@john47jones 6 лет назад

Love the vid and them silencers really look the dogs nuggets, and sound awesome. Makes my fazer6 sound waspish lol 👍

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thanks Russell! get yourself a Bonnie! Thanks for watching!

@anthonybahrawy5183 6 лет назад

Stuart I was thinking the combination of the cat & silencers must be quite a good saving in weight 😎

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Yes Anthony you will be right! im sure the sleepers will lighter than the stock silencers but i forgot to weigh them so i cant say by how much, as for the x pipe it is nearly 2kg lighter than the cat!

@Ojisan642 6 лет назад

How does it compare to the BC exhaust tips, without the silencers? In terms of sound and performance. And you didn’t install an X-pipe in place of the cat, correct?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

yes fitted an x pipe a couple of weeks ago in preparation for the sleepers coming. the tips dont really enhance performance but they do make a lovely sound.

@Ojisan642 6 лет назад

stuart fillingham ah ok. So your dB test was with the silencers and x-pipe kit. The x-pipe isn’t street legal where I live, so I think I’ll stick with the exhaust tips for now (which I was encouraged to install after watching your video on it.) I think the silencers without the x-pipe are probably going to be too quiet for me.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I did do a db test when i fitted the tips last year, they were 1db louder than the sleepers! Thank you for watching sir!

@OldManTony 6 лет назад

I’m glad they are good, they seem quite expensive once you have paid shipping and tax from the US.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart I did a track day at castle coombe back in the summer, they did a noise test on my bike at 5000 rpm , 27 dB on Triumph standard exhaust system , was told the guy in the shed talks louder than my bike! Didn’t like corners as pegs are tooooo low. Great video as always ,looking forwards to next weeks. Dave G

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

thank you David . I can believe it, they are rather quiet stock!

@DaleNewnham 6 лет назад

Stuart, was your comparison against stock? If so why was yours so much higher than 27db? Great video!

@stuartfillingham7011 6 лет назад

Dale Newnham because the bike now has an x pipe instead of the cat! I converted it a couple of weeks ago!

@montaguemonro565 4 года назад

Hi stuart, this may be a stupid question, but I own a triumph bonneville america (carb). I know it has a bonneville engine in it, so would I be right in assuming a lot of the exhausts would be compatible with the america?

@paulrice1301 6 лет назад

Very nice Stuart I want some.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

Thank you Paul!

@Kito66j1 6 лет назад

Hey Stuart. I was just about to purchase the BC tips for my t-120 but just realize that they won’t fit. BC has a vin number limit and clearly states that the tips won’t fit t120s above that number. Highly disappointing because they clear up the rear of the bike for chain maintenance and aren’t too pricey. QUESTION. Now that you’ve had the sleeper pros for sometime, how is the chain adjusting procedure? These pipes seem to cover the bolts even more so than the originan pee shooters. Do you have to dismount the pipes? Thanks for your help. Long time fan.

@carlodiano1834 4 года назад

Ho avuto delle Sleepers sulla mia T100 per 7anni. Fantastiche ! Nulla a che vedere con la concorrenza. Ora ho acquistato una nuova T120 . Indovinate quali scarichi monterò... Two new Sleepers to run in my wonderful Country for many years,I hope...!!

@stewartmaxwell550 6 лет назад

Hi Stuart. Apologies in advance If Anyone has already asked, but will these performance enhancements/changes affect your insurance at all?

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

LOL Hi Stewart Have a read through the comments, its a regular question!

@stewartmaxwell550 6 лет назад

Ha ha thanks Stuart, interesting response from insurers. Did you feel compelled to notify them of suspension mods? Is it necessary. Great vid again as usual and I do love the x pipe and exhaust conversion. Still in a quandary about whether to dump the GS in exchange for bonnie......

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

LOL why not have both! yeah i think it may vary from insurer to insurer but stuff like exhausts and suspension are considered consumable (they wear out) so they are not generally taken in to account. e,g do you inform you insurer when you repair a tyre or replace it with a different make?

@stewartmaxwell550 6 лет назад

Ha, don't tempt me! Yes of course very salient point you make about 'consumables', I never thought about it like that.... Whatever I decide, bike wise, l will continue to follow your channel, they are amongst the most insightful, useful and intelligent videos out there on this topic. Carry on sir!

@F4FPhantomII 6 лет назад

Stuart, Have you replaced the stock air filter or removed the air box snorkel to increase air intake? I purchased a high flow air intake assembly from Free Spirits when I had my Street Twin but the one for the T120 is over twice the cost. I watched a video from I think TEC Bike parts and he removed the snorkel from the air box and added a higher quality air filter and claimed to gain more performance. Here's the link to the air intakes I was talking about I think they are crazy for what they are charging www.freespiritsparts.com/en/triumph/modules

@nightster6378 4 года назад

I guess its a matter of taste, I like the Burgess type silencers as fitted as standard, but I guess you have to be a lover of Burgess silencers and go back to 54 and before rigid and sprung hub Thunderbirds since Triumph last used them. For my liking, I think these taper too much into the straight pipe at the back of the silencer. i.e. should they replicate as close as possible or resemble the style? great video.

@olofstenfelt9113 6 лет назад

Stuart, you mention chain maintenance in the film, can you also adjust the chain without taking the sleeper pro off? I have let maid a special u-tool with 45 deg jaw angel to be able to adjust without taking off the original sleep-on when adjusting the chain. I wonder if there will be space enough for adjusting without taking off with these sleeper pro?

@briandauphinais7894 4 года назад

My concern with aftermarket silencers has been with increased sound which may be painful or annoying to my sidecar passengers, mostly my wife, not my stuffed lion of course. But, you have disproved the excessive noise with the decibel meter - thanks! I will seriously consider the Sleeper Pro Silencers.

@acp2446 5 лет назад

Hi Stuart, Great video, I installed the exact same silencer and your video was very helpful ! I just love the new look and sound. I’m running in a bit of a discomfort though with the side stand. I own a 2018 T100, and the hook that you use with the heel of the boot to lower the stand is hidden under the exhaust and I’m having trouble to have a grip on it. Do you know of any way that I could overcome this? I had in mind some sort extension that I would directly put on the OEM stand, or should I just buy an aftermarket stand? Warm regards, Andre

@keithstewart1979 2 года назад

I fitted a set of these on my 2021 Speedmaster within the first week of owning it, I absolutely love the sound and performance. 3500 miles so far and I'm still in love.

@michaelbardwell6368 6 лет назад

Thanks for your informative videos ,I replaced the cat as you did with the same x pipe and fitted the brass tips from british customs (in effect just a straight pipe) bike loved it!!! but even for me it was too loud and a very dirty sound at lowish speeds,ok at 100kms though.Been waiting for my sleeper pros and should be here this week. quite liked the look of the tips but not really suitable if you do the cat conversion

When you talk about "de-cating" the exhaust, how is that achieved? Are o2 sensors affected as well? Does the bike "re-tune" itself(like my Rocket did when I changed out piping)?

@stuartfillingham 5 лет назад

decating is the removal of the catalytic converter and fitment of an xpipe in its place Mike, and yes the bike retunes itself, o2 sensors are not removed.

I have watched 10 to 15 of your videos and like them all. a real down to earth RIDER ; no nonsense great advice and tips to cleaning your bike and maintaining them. Oh and of course your evaluations of aftermarket parts I don’t currently own a Triumph or Royal Enfield but looking into buying both brands. Thank you for your videos.

Mr. Fillingham, I am seriously considering the T120 as a new bike and found your channel looking for information and reviews on various Triumph models. I have to say that your videos a better marketing material than we get from Triumph Corporate here in the U.S. Thanks for the great information and well done, sir.

Thank you very much Mel, and thank you for watching!

Great video mate. Do you have to acclimatise the ECU once or every time the bike starts? I'm assuming once.

@stuartfillingham 5 лет назад

Just the once Dylan!

Hello Stuart! Great video and very informative! I have a question for you? I have a Triumph Speedmaster 2019 with the T120 HT engine, with the Vance and Hines Slashcut slip-on exhaust and a british customs x pipe. The Speedmaster always shows me a DISTANCE TO GO BEFORE FUELLING around 80km less than my 2019 Bonneville T120 with CAT and stock exhausts? Would you have an idea of why it is so? Thank you Marc

@stuartfillingham 3 года назад

fuel tank size?

@marccharpentier9501 3 года назад

Yeah you are right! I thought and assumed the fuel tanks were the same size since the Speedmaster is in the Bonneville family… but after checking the specs sheets of both motorcycles, the Speedmaster has a 2,4 liters deficit on the Bonneville T120… sorry about that… cheers

Are you still recommending these Stuart ?

@JohnWatsonGolfPro 4 года назад

Would you say these rather than the predators? Fitting a Motone X pipe Tuesday Thanks in advance

Hey up Stuart, I may have missed a video - is that the stock seat, or is it aftermarket? It looks like it has a bit more of shape than the seat the T120 comes with?

@stuartfillingham 5 лет назад

hi mikey Yes its the triumph brown comfort seat, I actually had it fitted when I bought the bike!

@Mikey__R 5 лет назад

I just spotted a Thruxton seat on eBay and bought it. It'll come in useful when I raise up the suspension a little and fit some more aggressive bars.

@pepitovfr 6 лет назад

Something I don't understand. How are exhaust tips only just a bit louder (1dB) than full silencers on the T120 ? I'd expect them to be much much louder. Just as Captain Rambunctious discovered on his Thruxton !

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

I still had the cat fitted when i had the tips on sir. they act as a primary muffler. so although they sounded very nice they were not super loud.

@2hondaboy2 6 лет назад

Just wondered if you could name the app that you used to measure the sound level? Thanks again for the great videos.

@stuartfillingham 6 лет назад

It just called the sound meter from google play. a friend of mine runs an instrument calibration business and i got him to calibrate it against his equipment. though you can get reasonable results by following the calibration instructions.

Thanks for the information.👍🏻
