That is exactly it. When playing bass, I find that once I am 30 feet away 
from the rest of the band (all analog signal path) my playing suffers. I 
find playing guitar through the computer to use effects in the computer 
with jack set 256/2 is starting to get anoying. In a hall, so long as the 
house speakers are reasonably aligned, I can be over 100feet away with no 
degredation in listening enjoyment (assuming a hall with reasonable 
acoustics).
