The Olympus LS-10 received some bad press from audiophiles who didn't like =
the way the LS-10's preamp attenuated low frequency sound.  Below about 100=
 Hz, the sound is attenuated several dB.  It's like having a low cut filter=
 that's permanently switched on.  Olympus probably did this to help mask no=
ises your hand might make when holding the recorder.

The bass roll-off is not an issue with the LS-11.
