They use measuring microphones, which are generally flat to better

where would I get one, and how much would it cost?


Bruel and Kjaer make arguably the best, and expect to pay anything up
to a grand for the commonly used 4133 model with accessories. A 1/2
inch capsule is probably the best compromise of dynamic range and
frequency response.
