miniDSP EARS PRO Reference Headphone Test Fixture
The miniDSP EARS PRO is built for accurate, repeatable headphone measurement in professional environments. Its robust fixture combines human-like soft silicone pinna, IEC 60318-4 couplers and precision 1/2" prepolarized microphone capsules to support traceable frequency-response testing from 10 Hz to 20 kHz. Each microphone has a unique calibration file referenced to the unit serial number, including frequency, amplitude and sensitivity drift data.
The adjustable aluminum test jig is designed for stable positioning and high-throughput workflows. It offers multiple headband-holder positions, adjustable ear-to-ear width from 100 to 200 mm, a heavy base to reduce noise transmission and mounting holes for test-bench installation. Additional base-plate mounting points are provided for a mouth simulator, which is not included.
The included USB Audio 2x2 interface turns the fixture into a complete acoustic measurement setup. It uses an XMOS 500 MHz multicore processor with USB Audio Class 2 support, Windows ASIO drivers and plug-and-play operation on Linux and macOS. The interface includes low-noise ICP microphone preamps with 24 V, 4 mA IEPE bias, DIP-switch analog gain control from 0 to 45 dB, BNC inputs, RCA stereo analog output and a 6.3 mm headphone amplifier output.
This makes the EARS PRO suitable for headphone R&D, production QA testing and calibrated binaural recording where repeatability, low noise and practical connectivity are essential.
