Agree. I suppose if you’re in a recording studio with compressors etc, you need 20-20K, but for the rest of us when we are doing live gigs with people consuming adult beverages LOL 100-15K should be fine.

davedroug the audio range of human earing is, Human ear perceives frequencies between 20 Hz (lowest pitch) to 20 kHz (highest pitch) and that's with A 1 earing in children most people over 20 can't get anywhere near that more like 50hz to 10hz when you have bass below 50hz it just rumbles pointless going below 100hz and above 15khz it just adds mush and squeal to your mix . i roll off the bass at 100hz and the highs at 15khz on all my tracks much cleaner sound and a lot less mush in the mix
You are technically correct in what you say but your logic I believe is wrong, when it comes to the end result having the majority of audience hear your sound that’s clear and not muddy or have no punch, by cutting those extreme frequencies you are actually making things worse for those that slightly lack those frequencies so my mixes have the opposite EQ I boost the bottom and tops to compensate for older peoples hearing loss which most my audience is elderly and have hearing deficiencies, so that way majority of them get a normal sound , there’s nothing worse than hearing a muddy sound due to lack of top end so even though I agree with your comment I think you are making things worse for your live audience in general.
Uh, the range between 50hz and 100hz is vitally important for kick and bass especially for dance music. I would never ever buy a PA system that has a roll off at 100hz. Sub 100 is also not the range that often is perceived as "muddy". This is more in the area between 200 and 300.
peter when I said muddy I was not talking about the bottom end I was referring to the overall sound, my point was if you actually boost the frequencies generally people suffer due to normal life, you will sound that much better to the overall audience it makes no sense to say they can’t hear it so what’s the point of having it so leaving it out.

Damir if you look at my post i said i rolled the bass and top off not completely stop it dead .i''m a bass player .
I've found over the years that by rolling the bass off at 100hz i can get the bass louder and cleaner without it booming all over the room. The same with the highs roll it off at 10khz you can boost the mid-highs up without it cutting your ears off it goes for a much nicer overhaul sound where you can actually hear everything that's being played .try it sometime , i did over the years and always getting complementary feedback about the overhaul sound
i suppose its depends on what music your playing whether you need below 100hz or not and its everybody to there own but here's the frequency of a standard bass
80 Hz – 200 Hz: Energy & Fullness
200 Hz – 500 Hz: Muddiness & Boxiness
500 Hz – 1 kHz: Punch & Intelligibility
1kHz to 5 kHz: Attack, Harmonics, Clarity

I agree with you , I played bass 18 years in a band and we didn’t have all the wonderful facilities of today, my last purchase of pa to suit my solo shows was the Yamaha 2 12 inch subs and 4 12 inch tops 2 front house 2 fold back , the reason I use this combination is it suits the backing tracks music I play with all boxes set to standard settings and a reasonably standard song backing mix the system sounds great in most venues without having to tweak the mixer much at all, I don’t need to roll off the bottom because the subs are 12 1000w each so it all depends on the system you have and as you said the music you play and which venues you perform in mostly, if I was playing with a band and in slightly larger places then I would have 18 subs and 15 tops and a lot more work on the mixer, but for my solo performances I keep it very simple and my PA system of total 6000w does most venues nicely without too much mixer tweaking thanks to Yamaha professional designers that have designed it so the customer doesn’t have to play around too much with the mixer.
It was a tough decision to go with the 12 inch system as I do sound for bands on occasion when they come over from overseas but then I just hire a much larger system and leave my baby at home nice and safe.

So I bought the xvive p3 BT audio receiver and have tested it. In the specs it says that the A2DP frequency response is 20 Hz - 20 kHz.
And the BT profile is the latest, 5.1.
The sound is just amazing to my ears. So defined and crystal clear. If the frequency rolls off at 75 Hz, well, I could never tell. And it’s not mentioned anyware in the manual. I have the stereo solution and it sounds just great. Hopefully it’s a dependable piece of gear because this was a slick solution.
Xvive has good gear. I am using the U4 in ear system for quite some time and never had problems.
As long as your happy
The specs are on the website

This is the manual that comes with it. It's not the same specs. Anyway, I will go with my ears, it sounds great. I just hope it's a stable piece of gear.
My Fiio BTR5 let me down at one gig unfortunately, at a loud gig it had a short stop and go. Put it away. Now I hope to put my cable connection away with the Xvive.
A little update on the xvive P3. Yesterday it worked like a dream. Today it was totally useless, noise and interference, low sound. Tested away from wifi router and other 2,4 ghz equipment. Fully charged. I bought the stereo set. Back to cable again. I'm about to give up this Bluetooth project

royandreno i got this BT receiver from Amazon a few years ago. No problems. Sounds great.
I’d recommend you sign up to CME newsletter and also register interest in their latest development
