Sound quality.
I worked in life theater for almost a decade as a sound board op and audio engineer for a few local theaters.
People would always comment to the lighting board op how good the lights were.
But maybe one person in a whole run of a show would compliment the sound.
Boy oh boy, if a cable died mid show... The whole intermission and afterwards I'd have to hear "I do sound at my church and," or some variation of "I'm just a hobbyist but,".
You think I wouldn't pull that cable and replace it if I could???
Came to say this.
Yup, came to say the same thing. People only notice good lights and bad audio.
How many audio board ops does it take to change a lightbulb? One to do it, and ten more to comment that they could’ve done it better.
