Integrated acoustic coupler for professional sound industry in-ear monitors

An integrated acoustic coupler for use in sound engineering testing of an IEM (in-ear monitor), comprising:

• an integrated coupler body having
• an input defining an IEM seat defined by a deformable member and into an which an IEM may be inserted to define an air-tight seal between the deformable member and the IEM;
• a first chamber in fluid communication with the IEM seat and interconnected with at least one second chamber via at least one passage configured for creating compliance and impedance to simulate a human ear;
• a transducer positioned in operative relationship with the first chamber;
• an integrated circuit element connected to the transducer;
• and
• an output port connected to the integrated circuit and configured for electronically, interconnecting to an XLR cable and outputting a signal from an IEM under test to an XLR input of a mixer.
