Thanks a lot, this is very informative. I am a bit surprised though that the main difference seems to be in the higher frequencies and there is not much differences in the lower frequencies. I had expected it to be rather the opposite (or equally), but that might be due to my limited knowledge of the physics of sounds transmission. Given that I am mainly interested in frequencies below 1 kHz (Owl calls), it almost looks like it might not make much of a difference for my application.
Best wishes and thanks again. Arne
