[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 43189, member: 162"] Re: budget wired IEM setup I have to question the limiter thing too. How do the Mfrs know where to set the limiter to? The sensitivity of in-ear drivers can vary a lot. I can see the value of a limiter on the aux out of the desk as you actually have some tools to determine what a normal level is and limit the max level to some pre-determined level above that, but I fail to see how a pack limiter makes any reliable difference. With my Sennheiser IEMs, my "limiter" is the gain structure I set on the transmitter - keeping the nominal level hotter than -10dBFS gives me a known hard ceiling. Bad gain structure- a signal too low on the transmitter and turning the pack up too much is where you get in trouble. [/QUOTE]
