I just use the IMM06 + iPhone 4S with AudioTools app. In the app, I eschew A or C weighting and measure the Raw FR. If you have questions once you get setup, just let me know here or via PM.

Oops, autocorrect goofed me. I meant tubing. What kind of tubing and how long a piece?

Oh, lol. I use a small piece of PVC tubing left over from my homebrewing days. It's about 1.5" long.

I'm in the process of setting up my own test rig with the following

imm-06
iphone X
AudioTools
lightning to 3.5mm audio jack

I followed Nik's youtube video. However, my initial measurements looks far off from the reference measurements already floating around. Both ends are steeply rolled off. Just wondering if imm-06 has compatibility issues with iPhoneX.

I've used 2 different iMM-6s now - from my experience, that's just the way they are. In fact, that's the way most mics are (the Movo I tried had even more roll-off). Supposedly, mics aren't accurate and/or reliable at the extreme ends of the frequency range anyways (ie above 9k-10k for example).

Also, the calibration from Dayton Audio shouldn't be used, because it is calibrated for open air use. You'll need to make your own calibration file (you can edit theirs). And since you're doing your own calibration file, you can tweak it to match the reference measurements more closely (assuming you are using the same IEM as the reference).

Hi Slater, have you tried those cheap Movo MA1000 or MA2000? I am looking for extremely budget solution for measuring my mods.

Just started modding KZ ATE and plan to do DIY build with cheap AliExpress stuff. And I would like to be able to measure and see how my mods and tuning are going.

Are those Movo mics suitable solution or is IMM-6 worth the price increase?

I tried the Movo. They must use a different microphone capsule.

Despite looking the same as an IMM6, it does not work the same at all.

Don’t waste your money on a Movo.

Ok thanks for the answer. IMM6 is quite expensive here in Europe. So I don’t know if it’s worth it or should I rather buy one of those currently popular IEMs... Hm tough choices

I put the iMM-6 onto the silicon pipe and the microphone is loose now as it went off the device. I can't put it back due to the glue on the tube side. I am not sure if I should apply much force. My question is as follows. There's a mesh at the end part of the tube. Do I have to put the mic deep inside the tube to touch the mesh or shouldn't it go deep inside but just a little bit?
