    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes reference equivalent threshold sound pressure levels (RETSPLs) of pure tones in the frequency range from 8 kHz to 16 kHz applicable to the calibration of air conduction audiometers for specific earphones.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This part of ISO389 specifies reference equivalent threshold sound pressure levels (RETSPLs) of pure tones in the frequency range from 8kHz to 16kHz applicable to the calibration of air conduction audiometers for specific earphones.

    NOTE Some notes and references on the derivation and the test conditions used to determine the reference levels are given in AnnexA and the Bibliography.
