Why are the tiger stadium speakers so bad?

Is it the stadium acoustics? When we talk about atmosphere, audio and video matters. Both are bad at TS. Something needs to be done

It’s so bad. It’s embarrassing how bad it is. I never hear a word

They do sound bad which is strange, they are Danley speakers. Danley has some of the worlds best loudspeakers, something went astray here.

Change the settings?

Depends on where you sit. My seats in 212 the sound is perfect.

That’s the problem. All the sound comes from the north end zone. I sit in 412 and never hear a word. They could really benefit from speakers throughout the stadium. Other stadiums do this so much better.

I could hear better when I sat in the stadium club in the south end zone than when I sit in my regular south end zone seats in 416. I can’t understand much of anything in 416.

Captured by General Sherman when he reoccupied Fort Sumpter and gifted to the school.
They have too much historical value to replace at this point.

The problem lies in the south end zone upper deck. Short of installing speakers all around the stadium to the tune of several hundred thousand dollars, there’s nothing that can be done. They are aware but it’s a building design issue. Last week at the Ole Miss game, the wind was affecting the sound. That’s why some of the refs calls could be heard, others couldn’t. This was told to me during the game by the sound mixer.

So they can fix this with what amounts to a rounding error in the athletic budget. Or what it costs in fines to rush the field after beating Ole Miss. Got it.
Been going to games for 20 years. Always been a problem. Could've floated a bond and had it paid for by now. Ridiculous.

I don't have details but I know this as a season ticket holder in the SEZ. Before the South Uppers were built, the sound was okay and stable around the stadium.
When they went up in 2015, the first few games the sound was WAY too loud in the SEZ. The reverb/echo whatever was insane. It hurt our ears that shite was so loud.
So they turned it down after a home game or two. But ever since then it's been wonky all around the stadium.

Yep. It's been that way since the South Uppers were built.

In West Upper you can’t hear shite. And the band makes no noise up there. I don’t understand why there’s no speakers in the south side of stadium and none in the uppers.
When I was a kid the old old sound system was fine even in the old upper deck.
Fix it.

If you sit anywhere higher up in the south end zone, they’ll blow your ears off. But some spots in the North end zone are hard to hear.

I'm deaf and I dont give a shite.

Have been bad for years but all of a sudden last week (Ole Miss game) the sound was incredibly loud. I could hear it easily and at times it was too loud. Commented to my wife about it and she agreed. Wonder what changed?

IMO, they should find a new “sound mixer” and invest whatever it takes to improve the quality of sound in TS. As is, it’s embarrassingly bad, and all but non-existent in the SEZ.
When they last updated the sound in TS, it sounded amazing for one half. Then someone complained in the sideline seats that it was too loud, and it has sucked ever since…at least in the SEZ.

What matters is the organic excitement and experience. We’ve lost our way a bit. Just a bit.
Had this confirmed again this week. Got to go to a couple Barca soccer matches. 100k, no intercom or video, distant bass drum cadence, constant excitement and chanting - was a blast and a reminder of why we are the pinnacle of college football experience.
