Re: Active speaker ?I'm a fan of the method Bennett suggested. In fact, I used the same principle this week to calibrate the meters on my mixer with those on the recording decks I'm using for the conference at the hotel - no clipping allowed!I am going to do a similar thing to what you are doing, however, at least in a similar vein of thought. The audio install at the hotel where I work was made to be self-sufficient. Plug your mic into the wall jack, the mixers (Shure SCM628) in the amp closet gain up the signal; all you have to do is turn up the volume knob on the wall and have at it. The way WE use it, however, involves multiple inputs, so we must use a mixer in the room. This leaves a gray area for distortion and clipping that I haven't had time to work out yet...but tomorrow should be a good time to see how the meters correlate between the mixers in the room and those in the amp closet.All the best to you and I wish you luck!
