Ive been looking at fluke but id rather not spend over $100 on a multimeter unless i have to.

Does anyone have any suggestions on which multimeter i should get?

DM383B Digital Multimeter
I use this for my fan testing, and it's accurate within +/- 0.01%
• 750 Volts AC and 1000 Volts DC
• 10 Amps AC and DC
• Resistance to 40 Mehohms
• Diode check function
• Continuity
• 3 3/4" Digit, 4000 count display
• Max capture mode
• Data hold
• On-screen range and function indicators
• CE and UL listed 600V CAT III

Thanks!

Do you know how well this does with testing audio? I dont know much about multimeters except that not all of them are ideal for testing audio components.

Right now i have $5 meter that my dad is letting me use. I think we both deserve something better lol.

I can't really say as I've only used it on electronics.

But I have used it to test the impedance on my Bass Cap, and it does fine at that job. I mostly got it for electronic's purposes.

i mean testing connections in something like a CMoy.

It should do fine for that.

Wish i could justify buying a fluke lol

I could easily, except they're twice the price for similar specs.

Yes, will work for testing connections.
