[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 47250, member: 30"] Re: Behringer line array And that is part of the whole problem. Now-a-days we are SURROUNDED by bad sound. Everything from bad MP3's-to distorted installed systems (think eateries-convenience stores etc) to overdriven DJ's and so forth and so on. I have run into a number of situations lately that they typical "lay person" thinks the distorted/compressed system actual sounds better- because they think "that sound" is "right". In so many cases "just making some sound" is considered good. And there are a number of manufacturers who are tying to improve the sound quality, but if the inputs are poor and then overdriven, all the efforts sometimes seem futile. Yes, while a "farm show" may not be at the top of the list (in terms of quality needed), but that is not a reason to excuse poor performance. We must ALL work to gether to "raise the bar", because it is constantly being lowered. Either by cheap gear or by installers/operators that have no idea what they are doing. In the "ol days", it was a lot harder to get good sound, and it required more knowledge to get it all working (somebody with a paycheck could not just walk into the local music store and by a complete system), so the overall quality of "providers" was higher. It seems as if anybody who can hook it up and make a loud noise is considered an "expert" these days. Rant off. [/QUOTE]
