> Hi Auditeers--Great article on the poor quality of sound at concerts these > days....it seems like technology is marching backwards. Is it a problem in > your area? ... Yes... Ft. Lauderdale, Fla's Office Depot Center... Great building... acoustics could be better... So far have seen there...Elton, Simon & Garfunkel & McCartney's 2000 tour and in two cases the echo & bass made for a not so perfect acoustic atmosphere imho... I do remember, however, McCartney's concert sounding a bit better... Could it have been the nimble hands of a great sound engineer or maybe my seats were better?... This is why I enjoy more intimate venues such as Miami's James L. Knight Center... but then again the seating capacity is limited for massive events such as McCartney & Elton... So I guess we just have to bite the bullet and just try to enjoy the evening the best we can despite of the sound misgivings... Miguel
