A bit of a dick move, but could one ever request or question when the sound device/microphone was last calibrated? Putting on the wrong filter on the mic could make or break your test sometimes. Like 68style said, the testing procedure can easily be the line between a simple pass or fail. If the mic is sitting on a crappy tripod on the floor and trucks are running on the same track, the mic could pick up any vibrations and ambient noise.
