The physical configuration and acoustical performance of couplers for calibration of supra-aural and insert earphones are specified. The standard which is a revision of S3.7-1973, describes a family of 6.0 cm^3 and 2.0 cm^3 couplers, and provides information on the methods for coupler calibration of the respective supra-aural and insert earphones. The family of 6.0 cm^3 couplers includes the NBS 9-A Coupler for testing supra-aural earphones (ANSI S3.6-1989), the Type-1 Earphone coupler for testing supra-aural earphones without cushions, and the IEC Coupler for supra-aural earphones.
