Is it just me or does Jeff Bakalar need a highpass filter on his mic?

He definitely has some low tones in his voice, but I think you should maybe turn down the bass on your monitors. I have a subwoofer in my PC audio setup, and with the levels sitting right in the middle Bakalar isn't bothering me.

Of course all audio gear is different, etc. etc.

I forget when it happened but at some point in the GBeast era he got a new, better mic and I've thought this ever since then. It's not distractingly bad for me, but definitely a little boomy on the low end. My permanent PC audio setup is the same hand-wired stereo HiFi amp and speakers someone just gave me 20 years ago and I get really good quality sound from it, but it does mean hearing things I suspect most viewers/listeners don't.

@frytup: yeah I hear that I mean my mixer has a high pass on it and I use it to clean up low end when I listen. My monitors themselves are genelecs which are pretty decent studio monitors and should give a pretty neutral sound without EQing.

I only hear Jeff Bakalar on the Giant Bombcast these days, but I do feel a highpass filter would help a lot. Listening through my old smartphone with decent monitoring headphones I still get a case of the booms a few times per episode.

As has been said in the thread already, listening to podcasts with any good audio gear probably isn't helping.
