Audiocups
Noise-reducing enclosuresThe 250s and 350s audiology booths allow for accurate, safe and reliable hearing test assessments through the attenuation of background sound, complying with the standard ISO 8253-1 for audiometric test methods to ensure the best testing results.
Each booth is equipped with a silenced ventilation system, maintenance-free LED lighting and a large double-glazed acoustic window to ensure maximum patient comfort whilst the audiometric hearing test is completed.

- No requirement to recalibrate after fitting
Please note: image shows complete headset option with fitted transducers.
Considered design
Incorporating a fully articulated earphone suspension system also ensures that the earphone cushions are able to locate against pinnas of all shapes without obstructing the ear canal, whilst enclosing the external ear to exclude background noise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the Audiocups with my audiometric headphones?
Our audiometric headphones are designed to be easily fitted to a fully articulated earphone suspension systems in the field. The rework takes less than five minutes and does not require a recalibration of your audiometer, so you can continue your audiometry session straight after. Watch our video on how to change the headset lead on your audiometry headphone here.
Why is a silent environment critical for hearing testing?
Why should I use headphone covers?
Ear cushions can serve as potential carriers of micro-organisms from the air, skin contact and draining ears (Bankaitis, 20111), since there is direct contact of the pinnae (outer ear) with the headset ear cushions.
Disposable covers which can be slipped over the ear cushion create a barrier between the pinnae and the headset ear cushion and are therefore highly recommended to be used with every patient.
