I've built several DIY mics over the last few years, and have always found it relatively straightforward to get an idea on most performance parameters, by comparing the mic against a commercial device with a published spec.
But to date, I've not been able to work out how to measure the maximum SPL level a mic can sensible receive, before it distorts unacceptably.
I'm sure there's probably a simple way to do it - I just can't see it! ....
Any ideas on how to measure max SPL of a DIY capsule /circuit combination, without having access to a 'pro' test set up?
