[QUOTE="Jeff Stevens, post: 30988, member: 236"] Re: The things at work in a listening test Phil, 1) We were not listening to them at 3 feet (actually more like 20), but measured our SPL there in trying to be consistent. I should also mention that was dB slow. 2) Some of the test material we used, I and the other sound guy recorded ourselves. 3&4) This is something I had not considered. The tracks I mastered had gentle compression and the highest peak was at -1dBFS. Knowing the CD player we used, the cd player coloring the sound is a very real possibility. I probably should have been more specific, but these demos were done at our venue. The UPMs will be used as front fill roughly 4'-8' away from the first audience member. They were setup in roughly the real instillation points. The UPJs will form the center etc, and were underneath the real point (as the real point is at a 15' trim). I'll admit, I really love the simplicity of the package and am far from writing them off, especially since the intelligibility are so far superior from the speakers they are replacing. ~Jeff [/QUOTE]
