I am interested in buying mic for room acoustic measurement to treats the room using acoustic panels, bass trap
I am going to use REW software for analysis
Which mic is better Behringer ECM 8000 or Presonus PRM1
Cost wise both are same in my country

Hi. Please read the forum rules for posting (click here). You seem to be missing a couple of things!

Which mic is better Behringer ECM 8000 or Presonus PRM1

I own both of those, but I only really use the PRM1. The ECM 8000 is faulty (it picks up a lot of hum and interference), and I have heard of many other people with the same or similar problems with this mic: it might perform OK, but the quality just isn't there. Don't waste your money on this. Get the Presonus PRM1. Mine has performed flawlessly in numerous measurements, in all types of acoustic situation, from tiny booths, to control rooms, live rooms, and performance halls.
