"Although I'm a FOH engineer as opposed to a monitor bloke, I find the easiest and most accurate way to listen to the same things that my artists are, whether out of a cue bass of iPod or whatever, is to use my Ultimate Ears. This helps when doing pre-production, discussing different mixes...whatever. On another note, I also system engineer/design for several tour a year in Australia and once it's up and running and the visiting engineer is happy, my 15dB attenuators go right in and stay for the show. This prolongs my hearing lifetime. Cheers Ultimate Ears. You rock!"
