Speaker Polarity for Positive User Reviews
✓ What an AWESOME app!I installed an amp and upgraded speakers on my motorcycle. Took great effort to install everything according to my wiring diagrams. After it was all done my front speakers just didn't sound right. Same speakers as the rear but nowhere near the quality as the rear speakers. I took the bike apart to check my work. I did it right but using a multimeter I discovered that the original bike wiring was wrong. POS and NEG wires were backwards even though color coding and connectors were correct. Strange I know. I fixed it but something was nagging me about it. Was the factory wiring really wrong? Could it really be? Researching and double checking my thought process on what I discovered and "repaired", I came across this app. How simple could it be. 5 minutes after purchasing I verified that now my speakers are indeed wired correctly. All I can say is THANK YOU! I only wish I could have had this before I redid the wiring to show me it was audibly wrong at the time. Better late than never and the piece of mind is well worth the price of the app!!!.Version: 2.5
✓ Awesome tool - Did EXACTLY what I neededI needed to test polarity in my car stereo system as I cannot find wiring diagram for it ANYWHERE! I knew polarity for speakers but not for the wires coming from the head units amp. I looked all over the internet for ways to test it, only found expensive testers and ways to test the polarity of the speaker itself. I was able to use this app plugged into my stereo aux input and test each speaker one at a time to confirm that I had correctly deduced the correct wiring. Can’t say how excited I am to have found this easy to use app. Most of the testers I found cost over $100. This app was totally worth it’s price..Version: 2.5
✓ Works as advertised!I recently hooked up surround speakers in a house that was pre wired for them. Unfortunately whoever wired it chose to use plain wire without any indication of positive or negative. I was strongly suspicious that my speakers were wired backward, and I found this app. Sure enough one of the surrounds was out of phase, and after fixing it they sound dramatically better! This is one of those apps that is well worth the 5 bucks. I'm very pleased. Thanks!.Version: 3.0
✓ Works a treatPlays from phone, or burn sound file from their website, couldn't be easier..Version: 2.5
✓ Speaker PopHandy-dandy little app, if you're settin' up a system this will help you make sure your speaker wiring is right. Google "Ferrari Safari" to see what I used it on!.Version: 0
✓ Pretty goodApp functions fine. Please increase the level of the generated speaker pop though as it is very low.Version: 2.5
✓ Works like a charmI’m a perfectionist and wanted my home theatre setup to have proper polarity. The speaker wires run through the wall so it’s difficult to know if positive/negative are flipped along the signal path. Rather than pulling out the multimeter and finagling a way to determine what is what, this app makes it a total breeze. Contrary to what an older review states, you can pipe the sound through your iPhone’s Bluetooth. Luckily my stereo receiver is Bluetooth enabled. I didn’t even care to isolate each speaker—it worked perfectly without that step. Get the pop going, adjust the volume on your phone to ensure signal strength is in the correct range, and the app does the rest. I know it works because when I tested the port on my subwoofer, it changed from “+” to “-“ as you would expect. All in all well worth the $7 to save a headache..Version: 4.0
✓ It works !!!I sat months thinking something is up with my car audio installation and and not happy with my music, with all my friends telling me it's just In my head. I ran this app to discover my rear left speaker is out of phase (-) with all the other speakers (+). It wasn't in my head, I have ears as good as science lol, which is what this app is, to confirm for sure the polarity :) I simply plugged in via usb cable to my alpine headunit and played the sound in the app to the speaker (use fader and balance settings on your head unit to do one speaker at a time) one the pop is playing out of a single speaker simply place the phone microphone facing the speaker and you will get the reading. I was surprised it was able to play the tone and use the microphone at the same time, a lot of apps don't let you do this, this does however saving you effort of having to burn anything to a cd/usb stick. The readings are correct because I also did an online phase test, which uses audio files that you listen to in phase and out of phase versions and that also confirmed to me that the speakers are out of phase, I knew I had to swap wired around for one of my rear speakers to get them matching phase, but I didn't know which one, then this app told me that my rear left speaker Is negative polarity and all my others are on positive. I switched wires on the left speaker and I am a happy camper now, the music sounds right now :).Version: 2.5
✓ Amazing - it totally works!This is cool. I actually found a speaker wired backwards in my surround system. Awesome!.Version: 0
✓ Brilliant!I'm no audio expert but knew my newly supplied van speakers and wiring should have sounded a lot better, which got me looking into phasing and then this app. Worked perfectly for me and identified quickly that the left speaker wiring was supplied incorrectly so this was rectified and now sounds a lot better. 👍.Version: 3.0
✓ Quick and easyI ran the WAV click file from their website through my stereo (using my iPad), then held my phone in front of each speaker to check polarity. 3 out of 4 of my speakers were negative, so I reversed the wires on those. Very quick and easy..Version: 4.1
✓ Does not workDoes not work with 2G iphones But am informed that a fix for that is coming in the next update.Version: 0
✓ A miracle app!This app saves me a lot of trouble by telling me which of my car speakers was connected properly or not (without having to disassemble my radio in my dash). Thanks a lot!.Version: 3.4
✓ Works Perfect!I installed new speakers in my car recently, and could tell something was just "off." I did some research on my own, and concluded it was most likely a polarity issue with the speakers. I didn't want to buy an expensive polarity testing device, so I looked through the App Store store and found this app. Trust me, it works. In less than 5 minutes, I installed the app, hooked up my phone to the car stereo, and tested all 4 car speakers individually. The test showed me 3 out of 4 speakers were connected properly with a positive polarity. I switched the wires for the one that came back negative, and re-tested it. Everything was positive and the music sounded full again. :-) To The Devs: Thanks for taking the time to make this stand-alone app, it really helped..Version: 2.5
✓ Great little app!This little app saved me a huge headache when replacing the factory speakers in my truck and figuring out which speaker was out of phase. It works as described and the developer offers a free downloadable test tone that can be burned to CD. It makes the testing process very quick. Once the wiring was corrected, the improvement to the overall sound in the truck was fantastic. Great app. The app is still scaled to iPhone 4/4s screens, but it works just fine on newer phones..Version: 2.5
✓ Perfect!!!Just built a new audio system in my car and I was struggling with some weird polarity issues coming from the OEM head unit. I downloaded and burned the WAV file to CD and played it on repeat. And then one by one I could test each speaker simply by hold my phone near it. Brilliant!.Version: 3.2
✓ Best money spent on an appWorks great with Bluetooth, (doesn’t work when Apple Car Play is running, but does with Bluetooth) Within 2 minutes I was done. Found out 3 speakers were backwards, literally the most useful app I’ve ever downloaded..Version: 4.2
✓ So simple with the right toolsWhat a great app !! I have an amp with 2 speakers on each channel and I’ve been noticing a drop in bass. I assumed I’d blown a woofer (don’t lend your PA to friends !!) and was getting ready to replace it or maybe even get new speakers but had a nagging doubt that maybe I had wired the speakon connector incorrectly & therefore one speaker was out of phase. Downloaded the app and within 2 mins had diagnosed & confirmed my suspicion. Now they sound great !! Saved me money. P.S Best way would be to download on to 2 devices. One as source for the all important sample tone & the other as diagnostic tool..Version: 3.6
✓ FantasticGreat app saved me many hours from bad installers redos.Version: 2.5
✓ Very niceI loaded the click aiff into iTunes, then put it on my iPod classic. Now it's in my playlist. iPod classic is normally at foh and iPhone always in pocket. How conveniant to have that option without extra gear or fuss! Works as it should. Awesome..Version: 0
✓ BEST APP--EVER!!!THE BEST FIVE DOLLARS I EVER SPENT IN MY LIFE!!!! This is the best app I have ever used. Period. Something didn't sound right in my car stereo after upgrading the speakers, which required cutting the factory harnesses. It turns out the Crutchfield and other available schematics had the colors of + and - opposite to my car's factory wiring. It could be due to my car being a very limited run car (the only one I know of and that the dealers knew of). After spending a lot of money on a sound system, I didnt want to be in another $200 to buy a phase tester. THIS IS IT !! BEST 5 DOLLARS I EVER SPENT IN MY LIFE!!! If you have an iPhone and need a phase test tool this is it..Version: 2.5
✓ Works as advertisedDiscovered an internal miswire on a speaker.....Version: 0
✓ Nice appWorks perfectly with my iPod Touch 3rd Gen and a headset mic. I played the test .wav through a ps3, set my receiver to output All Channel Stereo and placed the mic next to each speaker's tweeter. It caught an incorrectly wired rear speaker which was connected to a wall-plate. Simple as that..Version: 0
✓ Best $5 i’ve ever spent!!!Moved into new house with speakers built in everywhere to the ceilings and walls. No idea how the wires are connected, and i’m not about to go around removing each speaker from the wall and ceiling to see how they are attached (i tried one one, but they are very difficult to remove). I needed to know the correct polarity so that I could correctly calculate the impedance of various series and parallel circuits of speakers with the amp so i didn’t overload it (in addition to them having optimal sound). The builders of my house did not seem to follow any sort of convention or pattern when installing the speakers and connecting the wires, unfortunately. Using the app I was able to see that approximately 25% of my speakers were wired backwards and I simply matched this backwards wiring on my wall plate to ensure that I have the correct polarity everywhere. This app save me hours and hours and hours of difficult work and I will be forever grateful!!!.Version: 4.1
✓ Great Product!I had to splice unlabeled wires together on my 7.1 surround setup and could get the phase right. I had a significant drop in bass response. I downloaded this app, hit their web site and played the calibration file while testing each speaker. 5 of them were out of phase! 5 minutes later I had everything in phase and rocking! This saved me hours of wiring work and 30 bucks in speaker wire. Excellent app!!!!.Version: 2.3
✓ Great for any car audio install (Instructions in Review)Installed new speakers, head unit, and amplifier in my project truck. When using the factory wiring to connect to aftermarket speakers, it’s challenging to know the correct wiring schematic, even with a harness. After install I wanted to see if I did the wiring correctly... nope all speakers out of phase. This app gives a simple “-“ or “+” based on the phase of your speakers. I would have given 5 stars, but this app must of been created in an hour. It’s very poor with little to no instructions. What I did. Visit the app designers website on a Windows or OS computer and download their “Speaker Pop” audio file. From there I added the “long pop.wav” file into iTunes. I used my iPad as the music source (plugged in my iPad to the usb of my stereo), then used the app on my iPhone to read the sound from the speakers. The app used the microphone on your iPhone to read the signal. The microphone is located where the charger is (bottom of iPhone). Make the wire swap at the speaker, behind the head unit, or amp (my case, the amp under my seat) then test again. The test is only good for mid-speakers (door speakers), not tweeters (locates usually in the A-pillar or dash)..Version: 3.4
✓ Works wellExactly what I needed to troubleshoot speaker polarity and, by extension, phase for speaker pairs. Thank you..Version: 3.6
