Sensaphonics announces firmware update and big price reduction on dB Check Pro
Sensaphonics expands accessibility of its patented real-time sound level analyzer with a big price reduction and the release of Firmware Version 1.13, now available online as a free download.
Chicago IL - May 23, 2025 - Sensaphonics has announced newly-reduced pricing of $299 for its acclaimed dB Check Pro sound level analyzer. Despite current industry-wide pricing trends, Sensaphonics is able to offer this reduced price by capitalizing on the streamlined infrastructure made possible by its new online updatability. This special price is being announced in conjunction with Sensaphonics’ 40th anniversary celebration in 2025, reinforcing the company’s commitment to hearing health through innovation and accessibility.

Now offering a convenient way for users to download product updates via the Sensaphonics website – including support for newly-added earphone models – dB Check Pro continues to evolve to meet the needs of modern audio professionals. The dB Check Pro supports a growing list of IEM and headphone models, with the new Version 1.13 firmware adding to its already extensive compatibility with over 150 earphones from over a dozen major manufacturers. Latest updates include the addition of models by Fischer Amps, as well as updates for earphones by Ultimate Ears, 64 Audio and Beyerdynamic. Sensaphonics’ new software tools allow rapid addition of additional IEMs and headphones based on user demand and the availability of specifications for new models.
“This dB Check Pro upgrade reflects our mission to protect the hearing of those who rely on it most,” says Dr. Michael Santucci, Au.D, founder and president of Sensaphonics and longtime advocate for safe listening through his work with artists, engineers, and participation in outreach such as the World Health Organization’s Make Listening Safe Initiative. “With the new $299 price, we’re making the dB Check Pro more accessible than ever, and now, with updateable software and broader compatibility, it’s ready for what’s next.”
The patented dB Check Pro remains the only device on the market that provides IEM and headphone end users with calculated at-ear real-time and average sound pressure level estimates (dBA SPL). The unit also calculates safe listening durations based on NIOSH and OSHA guidelines, empowering users to make informed decisions about their listening habits in high-volume environments.
Designed to work unobtrusively in-line with any IEM or headphone monitoring system, the dB Check Pro has become an essential tool for musicians, engineers, and live production professionals. One analyzer can be easily shared among multiple users, making it a smart investment for touring groups, house-of-worship praise bands, production teams, rehearsal spaces, and others.
