Most impressive is the good use made of the surround channel which rises up nicely with a strong signal whenever we re inside the textile mill, hearing the roar of machines on the factory floor. The forward stage is a bit narrow and shallow. Panning effects and sound effects placement are rarely called for, but when needed they re fairly accurate. In fact, they sound a bit tinny and harsh. Sequences at a ball game and in a bar open up a bit with subtle ambient effects from over the shoulders to accompany what s happening in the forward stage.
Dialogue is always clear and intelligible.
Voices sound a bit thin during exteriors and on the factory floor especially when yelled over the noise of the machines. Integration into the forward stage is fair only. Thank you in advance for your support . Includes full 3-year factory warranty. Copyright 1998-2001 by Jeff McNeal Productions.
