Abstract
Hearing thresholds were measured for broadband clicks of 100 µs
duration and for brief tones (0.500, 1, 2, 4, and 8 kHz). The
signal shape of the tone pulses was of type 2-3-2, ie each pulse
consisted of two periods of linear rise and fall and three periods
with constant amplitude in between. The measurements were
performed with two types of headphones, Telephonics TDH-39 and
Sennheiser HDA-200. The sound pressure levels were measured in an
IEC 318 ear simulator with Type 1 adapter (a flat plate) and a
conical ring. The audiometric methods used in the experiments were
the ascending method (ISO 8253-1) and a transformed up/down
procedure. Twenty-eight normal hearing test subjects (13 females
and 15 males) in the age range from 18 to 26 years participated in
the experiments. The results of this investigation will be used in
standardisation (ISO/TC43/WG1).
