Can anyone suggest a good LCR meter? An industrial-quality instrument is preferred.

Was just looking at the Agilent E4980A... it is pretty nice, but not
real cheap.

Thanks for the suggestion, but at $17K it's out of our budget.
We've got an SRS 720 that we use mostly for cap matching.. but also to
check coils sometimes. Frequencies are 100, 120, 1k, 10k and 100kHz.
$2k in my old catalog.

Their Kelvin clips suck big-time unless you're exclusively dealing
with 1975 leaded parts with fat leads.

Thanks to you all for the help. I'll consider your suggestions as I continue to define requirements for the meter. One requirement is that it be capable of measuring capacitance in the range from 1 pf to 10 uf, at 10% accuracy. Actually, I'll aim for the greatest accuracy I can get for a cost of around $500.

10% is not much. I have a Radio Shack DVM that will do this on its
capacitance range. One can trade industrial quality for cheap enough to
drop and break occasionally. And just go out and buy another.
I have an LCR analyzer built around an AD5933 evaluation board. I think
those were selling for about $75 a few years back. But its home brew.
