DIN EN ISO 389-7:2017-01

Acoustics - Reference zero for the calibration of audiometric equipment - Part 7: Reference threshold of hearing under free-field and diffuse-field listening conditions (ISO 389-7:2005 + Amd 1:2016); German version EN ISO 389-7:2005 + A1:2016.

Summary

This part of ISO 389 specifies a reference threshold of hearing for the calibration of audiometric equipment. The data are given in numerical form for the preferred frequencies in the one-third-octave series from 20 Hz to 16000 Hz inclusive in accordance with ISO 266 and, in addition, for some intermediate audiometric frequencies up to 18000 Hz. It should be emphasized that the threshold data differ from the audiometric zero specified in ISO 389-1, ISO 389-2, ISO/TR 389-5 and ISO 389-8, since the latter refer to monaural listening through earphones with sound pressure levels referred to specified couplers and ear simulators.

Notes

DIN EN ISO 389-7 (2006-04) remains valid alongside this standard until 2017-02-01.*A transition period, as set out in DIN EN ISO 389-7 (2020-06), exists until 2020-05-01.
