App Features
-
Instant Speaker Polarity Check:
Use your Android device to check if each speaker pushes sound outwards or inwards first—super useful to rule out wiring mix-ups or unexpected polarity issues. -
Multiple Ways to Test:
Generate a test pulse using your phone or tablet, and connect directly to your sound system, use two devices, or pop the included test tracks onto another player. Flexible, especially if you’ve got more than one setup to wrangle. -
Clear Visual Feedback:
When you run the test, the app gives you easy-to-read feedback showing your speaker’s polarity direction. Red isn’t always a problem—it just shows the difference based on how your system’s set up. -
Fine-Tune Measurements:
Adjust the threshold to avoid background noise from interfering, and make sure you measure as close as possible to the speaker for the most accurate results. -
Frequency Pulse Selection:
If you’re dealing with full-range cabinets or combined low/high drivers, pick a frequency-based pulse to zero in on just the part you want to test. -
Microphone Safe-Guard:
The app warns you about microphone clipping—no accidental distortion ruining your measurement. -
Works Across Audio Systems:
Test everything from concert gear to home theaters, cars, and even headphones; it’s not just for massive setups. -
Offline Pulse Files:
Access test pulse files right from your SD card—handy if you want to use different playback options or need to repeat tests. -
Permissions for Full Functionality:
Needs microphone access for measuring, storage access to handle test tracks, and network access for a few optional app features.
For an expanded testing view, you can try Polarity Checker on a PC or Mac using BlueStacks, bringing those speaker checks onto a bigger stage.
Switch to BlueStacks and make the most of your apps on your PC or Mac.
