Recommended equipment for correct in-vehicle sound measurement:
A device is required to measure frequency responses in order to optimize the PP50 DSP to your
vehicle. There are now very reasonably priced systems which operate on a PC/Notebook/Netbook
and make it affordable for everyone to achieve reliable readings. The following list of components
and software have been tested by us and judged to meet the operational requirements.
• Behringer ECM8000 measuring microphone
• T-BONE Micplug USB microphone-USB interface with phantom power
• Praxis measurement software from Liberty Instruments (freeware)
• A music CD containing a pink noise test signal
