| Sound Pressure Levels | |
|
Due to the potential volume levels available with our FOH system that may come into the building with a show, the MFAC has adopted a very strict policy regarding SPL. The following maximum db level restrictions have been set for the protection of our audience members, crew, and artists. At no time shall the maximum A-weighted SPL ever reach above 110db at the Center of the House (COH) in Row "EE." MFAC reserves the right to direct their Head Audio Engineer or his designate to reduce system levels to remain within acceptable SPLs. A-weight SPL @ COH Maximum Time

| Audio Challenges in the Recital Hall | |
|
The Recital Hall was designed primarily for vocal and acoustical instrument events. Please Note: Due to the acoustic design of the front of the house, we strongly discourage the placing of the speaker stack on stage, as excessive echo slap back occurs, severely hindering intelligibility. |
