What type of amplifier/speaker works best with the Acoustic Lens?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens has been voiced to work best with a flat response, full range system. The better the frequency response of the system, the better the Lens will sound. There are a number of "acoustic" amplifier combos on the market, some better than others. Better still is a system like a small PA system, with component mixer, amp and speakers. These types of systems will generally have a better frequency response, more dynamic range and more flexibility.

Can I combine the Acoustic Lens with another type of pickup?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Amulet is a stereo system (two completely independent channels), designed to mix or match the Acoustic Lens with other transducers, or to run two Lenses as a stereo pair. It can easily support a magnetic or saddle-type pickup in combination with the Lens, and the gain trimmers inside the internal preamp allow you to easily match the levels of your favorite pickup to the Lens.

What type of amplifier works best with under saddle pickups? Can I use a keyboard amp?

Highlander Musical Audio Products. Frequently Asked Question...
The complex nature of acoustic guitar sound requires a good hi-fidelity amplifier or amplification system to reproduce the original tone faithfully. Electric Guitar Amplifiers are typically not suitable. A good electric guitar amplifier is designed to provide "color" and "excitement" to an otherwise dry electric guitar sound, and the cabinets typically have a open back which causes feedback.

Will the Acoustic Lens feed back?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens is designed to accurately reproduce the tone and nuance of your guitar at very respectable volume levels without excessive feedback problems. Ordinary contact pickups rely on the vibration of the instrumentös top and body to sense and create sound. In essence, the entire instrument becomes a large microphone, and often tends to feedback at lower volume levels.

FAQ's
There is not a one-answer-fits-all to this question. Ideally, you want to cater a lens that will best fit your need.

Will the Acoustic Lens pickup work on any guitar?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens pickup was designed and voiced specifically for the steel string guitar. It can be installed on most steel string guitars but because of its mounting location requirements, it will not work in some instruments. Classical (nylon string) guitars use fan bracing, where the braces run over the bridgeplate and block the area where the pickups need to mount, and so are unsuitable candidates for installation.

Can I use the Acoustic Lens with other manufacturers' preamps?

Trance Audio - Frequently Asked Questions
The Acoustic Lens poses a unique set of problems to amplify. It produces a very low output level and requires a very high input impedance to accurately reproduce a signal. Other commercially available preamplifiers, even the so-called "Piezo" types are designed to work with the output of a saddle-type or contact transducer, which put out a signal level typically 10 times higher than the Lens.

Which type of Amplifier works best, Tubes or Solid-State?

Sound Lab Frequently Asked Questions
The real question is, which do you prefer? The high-impedance of our speakers in the lower frequencies (where the musical spectrum is most demanding) results in a greatly reduced current drain from the amplifier. So, both types of amplifiers run cooler, exhibit less distortion and last longer. Our speakers are very neutral and are not prejudiced, so what you prefer sounds best.

Which type of lens care system is best?

InFar Vision
Lens care systems consist of three main categories, multi-purpose systems, peroxide-based systems and thermal-based systems. Multi-purpose systems are the most popular lens care regime as these "all-in-one" solutions are the easiest and quickest to use. Peroxide-based systems are best for people with sensitivities and allergies. You should not make your own lens care solutions, nor should you mix different brands of solutions unless instructed by your eye care practitioner.

Which lens color is the best?

FAQs: Sunglasses, Types of Sunglasses and Buying Sunglasses ...
Color is a personal choice and doesn't affect how well the lenses protect your eyes from UV light. Gray and brown are popular because they distort colors the least. Athletes may choose other tints for their color-enhancing properties; for example, yellow lenses are popular with skiers and target shooters because they work well in low light, reduce haze, and increase contrast for a sharper image.

Which type of product works best?

Beauty Questions Answered
We use a liquid organic product called "Nudesse". It is body temperature, it cannot burn like waxes or sugars can, and it epilates the whole hair bulb, rather than just the root, resulting in slower re-growth and even discouraging the hair from growing back over a period of time of regular servicing.

What is a Speaker Dependent or Independent Acoustic Model?

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions - voxforge.org
Audacity will let you change your Sample Rate and Bits per Sample to rates higher than what your Sound Card can support. It will record at the highest rate your sound card supports, and then dynamically upsample the audio to the higher rate your selected - without providing any warnings that it did this. This is NOT the approach you should take for any audio submitted to VoxForge. The upsampling and later downsampling for use in Acoustic Models can introduce noise.

Which mosquito repellent works the best?

Mosquitoes
The most effective repellents contain DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide), which is an ingredient used to repel pests like mosquitoes and ticks. DEET has been tested against a variety of biting insects and has been shown to be very effective. The more DEET a repellent contains the longer time it can protect you from mosquito bites. A higher percentage of DEET in a repellent does not mean that your protection is better-just that it will last longer.
