[QUOTE="Jelmer de Jong, post: 148343, member: 266"] Re: 60 Degree DIY Mid Hi In the ideal situation you would have two limiters complement each other. One set to 98V (1200W) with a short attack and fast release to prevent the speaker in doing things beyond its mechanical capabilities (Xmax, Xvar). The other limiter should be set to 40V (200W) with a long attack and slow release in case the speakers becomes a ironing machine. The first limiter will protect you when you mix a quiet band and somebody decides to slam the drums for a short while. The second limiter is there for DJ's who torture your system with minute-long sine-waves during breaks. If you only have one limiter it depends on the usage; mixing bands at high SPL with people talking between songs? peak-limiter. DJ's with 12-hour continious music? slow limiter. That's how I would do it. [/QUOTE]
