I wish I had some proper sound testing equipment.

I wish I had some proper sound testing equipment. You can hear the differences though.

All phones chop out the audio after a certain volume.

The SpectralView app is good for if you want the see the volume of various frequencies.

@NathanielStenzel thanks. That’s what I thought but figured it still showed the differences between them. I’ll have to check out that app.

I sometimes use that SpectralView app to diagnose my 3D printer. You can probably use it to help diagnose your ShapeOko too.

yeah, in case anyone isn’t sure, the DW660 sounds like a jet engine. The others you can probably get away without ear protection, but for the DW660, I wouldn’t stand around it without a good set of protective earmuffs.

Please don’t skimp on hearing protection.
