IEC 61606-3:2008 is applicable to the basic measurement methods of audio equipment for professional use. The definitions, measuring conditions and methods common to both consumer and professional equipment are described in the IEC 61606-1. This standard contains details of definitions and measuring conditions and methods applicable to professional equipment which differ from those described in IEC 61606-1.
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 61606-1:2009.
