Using Speakers
We recommend using headphones for the test. If they are not available, a
pair of speakers may be used instead. However, the test results will be less
accurate.
If you are using speakers, we recommend that you sit so that your head is located midway between the speakers during the test. An
ear-to-speaker distance of about 3 feet between each ear and its respective
speaker is optimal, although it is more important to make sure that the
ear-to-speaker distances remain the same both throughout the test, and
especially between the reference test and the hearing test. In addition, speaker
users should plug one ear while the other is being tested. You can use regular
earplugs or tightly cover the ear canal with a fingertip to plug the untested
ear.
Maintaining head-to-speaker distances and plugging the untested ear
will greatly improve test accuracy. Nonetheless, we encourage you to use
headphones if possible.
