Requirements to noise in the test environment
Audiometry testing does not require a quieter testing environment than other traditional Real Ear Measurement systems.
Although Audiometry testing is designed for use in a regular dispensing office environment, the test environment should
in some cases be adapted to suit the specific test types.
•
Make sure that the test environment is as quiet as possible. The quieter the room is, the more accurate your testing
will be.
