  • The Future of Audio
    The Future of Audio ■Audio is a cultural treasure nurtured over many years Ever since the dawn of audio technology, there is an ongoing debate whether the sound of audio equipment should be as transparent as possible or display a characteristic of its own, much like a musical instrument. Whichever side of this argument one favors, it is a fact that the reproduction chain from the microphone to the loudspeaker has come a long way. The accumulation of technology has made it possible to increasingly eliminate colorization, resulting in the sound that we have today. But this fact notwithstanding, there is practically no speaker that sounds exactly like another, nor is one amplifier exactly the same as another. Even products using digital technology have their own particular sonic characteristics. Audio technology has evolved to a very sophisticated level. However, the sound of two pieces of equipment may differ, even if their measurement data are the same. This indicates that measurement technology has not yet advanced to duplicate the full depth of human sensory perception. This uncharted territory is where the joy and creativity of audio is born. Paradoxically, the ideal state of audio equipment is one where the equipment itself disappears, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the music. With regard to an amplifier, this means stepping up the level of the recorded signal and correctly delivering it to the loudspeakers without introducing distortion. However, this is easier said than done, and so far the only means of determining whether the speakers are being correctly driven by the amplifier is a subjective evaluation by listening to the sound.

In a perfect world, a trained professional would always be available to purchase, setup, and operate the sound system. In reality, the funds are not always available for such a luxury. The responsibility then falls to the next most likely person available to run the sound system, the music director. After all, you just need a few microphones and a couple of loudspeakers, and it’s time to go on tour! And we want it recorded as well! Unfortunately, sound system setup is not quite that simple. It doesn’t, however, need to be overly complicated. While the extreme quantity of choices available at your local music shop may seem daunting (Cardioid? Dynamic? Low Impedance! Help!), with a few basic guidelines, you can learn what you need, how to connect it, and even how to make it sound good.
