Hi Rob,

Yes, if you used a digital player as a reference, then it was easily possible 
to prepare a .wav  file that contains both a 1 kHz signal and a band-limited 
noise signal. I'm not sure whether it must be pink noise. It could also be 
simple white noise.

I'm not sure about the best distance. Maybe it was better to use a shorter 
distance, which would reduce the relative influence of reflections.

Yes, it's that simple.
