First of all, that avitar is wierd and creepy. That's for starters.
It depends how hot you are running the V2. If it is blinking red at the high points, you should be fine. If the red lights are sustained, however, then you may be running it too hot. In a previous thread, someone remarked that when the red lights flash, you still have like 10db of headroom available, which is a lot.
Also, next time you set up in that location, check if there is a Smokeeter around. In a couple of the local taping establishments in Raleigh and Chapel Hill, there are Smokeeters directly above where one sets up to tape and they sound like shit.
