Abstract: A sound field measuring device (1) obtains frequency characteristics by collecting output sound outputted from a pair of speakers (101a, 101b) installed at a narrow interval. A low-pass filter (22a) extracts low-range components of a first measurement signal. A high-pass filter (22b) extracts mid/high-range components of a second measurement signal different from the first measurement signal. A combined signal generation unit (22c) generates a combined signal by combining the low-range components of the first measurement signal and the mid/high-range components of the second measurement signal. An external output unit (6) outputs the first measurement signal to an audio system (102). A microphone (7) collects the first measurement signal and the combined signal simultaneously outputted from the pair of speakers. A Fourier transform unit (13) obtains the frequency characteristics of a sound field by Fourier transforming the signals collected.
