[QUOTE="Robert Burns, post: 22963, member: 76"] Re: 12v Eco project sound system Dan: Because this is a forum whose focus is on Pro; The replies reflect the "Pro" sound market. By a very loose definition making money in audio is "Pro", and undeniably there are many different levels of sound work. There are full time professionals ( some tour some don't ) and there are professionals who work in varying aspects of sound or "niches". Because there is too much at stake in a Professional environment ( primarily money ) there is attention to specifications and measurements. On a contract rider ( besides indulgences ) are listed the hard performance requirements: like what type of equipment is acceptable ( and what is not ) and often measurements of SPL levels at various distances. Because no one is going to gamble with big money on "unknowns". Jeff touched on some of the issues in a DIY site where profit is the reason for existing. Protection of interest creates conflict of interests. The more performance data that can be provided the better the chance of success. Without a certain level of assurance of performance [U]that can be quantified[/U] a sound system has a much lesser chance of working. That requires data that is missing on the BF site. Often the decisions made in a speaker design reflects a "philosophy" of approach. The designs reflects the designers and their goals. Goals and philosophy vary: Personally I prefer to start from a flat response ,and I would not ever consider a flat line source [U]without shading[/U]. By all means evaluate options and BF designs, but do it objectively. Your situation is different from a room or club indoors. If at all possible demo outdoors. [/QUOTE]
