Presentation Level
For pure-tone average (PTA) less than or equal to 45 dB HL, set the attenuator (s) in
Channel 1 and Channel 2 to 70 dB HL. For PTA of 50 dB HL or greater, set the attenuators
to a level that is judged to be "loud, but okay." The sound should be perceived as loud, but
not uncomfortably loud. Tests can be performed in the right, left or binaural conditions.
Test Instructions
"Imagine that you are at a party. There will be a woman talking and several other talkers in
the background. The woman's voice is easy to hear at first, because her voice is louder than
the others. Repeat each sentence the woman says. The background talkers will gradually
become louder, making it difficult to understand the woman's voice, but please guess and
repeat as much of each sentence as possible."
