Logo #1
Logo #2
Logo #3
Logo #4
Logo #5
They’re all good, I like #5, it’s clean and professional and seems to fit best with the previous design sense.
I hesitate to recommend using level meters in a music-business logo because it is so very, very overdone.
However, logo #5 is a great application, and puts a new spin on a cliche. Turning the levels into a skyline brings it all home for me – I really like it.
My vote goes to #5.
I like #5 as well. Very clever design!!
Logo #1.
I definitely like #5 the best.
I like #2. I think it is more up with the times and have never been a huge fan of equalizers.
#2 – it’s is a strong identifiable logo
I agree exactly with commenter refe… level meters are overused but #5 turns them into a skyline-looking thing, and it looks great.
# 4 – it’s clever and clean
#5 looks the simplest and cleanest
I like #2 the best. It feels the most thought our and professional, but has some personality. I can see where #5 would be an easy choice but it just seems too typical/expected and you could substitute a dentist office or any business name and it would have the same feeling. #2 to me has more branding potential and just feels more fun.
#2 is where it’s at! It is by far the cleanest most modern looking application of Skyline.
Number 5
#2
Love number 5.
#4 – I like the flexibility of the different graphics, but the typeface could be slightly bolder.
#5 all the way my friend!
#1, with #2 as a runner up.
Hey Bruce. I’m partial to Logo #1.
Cheers,
Kevin
I’m going with #1 as my #1 choice and #5 as the runner-up. Great choices all around!
Loving #4 becuz it clearly appears as a skyline AND as an EQ (or similar type of sound meter).
Where now choosing between #1 and #5. What do you guys think?
#1. Says Class and Old School.
#1
I like #4 in black on white the best.
I think #1 and #5 are working the best. If you’re going for a stylized look, and want to break away and reinvent your company, #1 is your choice. If you’re looking for a brand that will tie into your legacy, then #5 works the best. I also like how the levels form a skyline. Well done.
I like the top one of #4 the best (black background, off-white (or yellow) “Skyline”, orange-ish LEDs/building skyline.
Assuming that is supposed to be a stand-a-lone logo, but if that’s part of a dual or triad logo with the other two below it (different color schemes), then I would go with #5.
I actually like the design and look of #1 the best, but it won’t translate to a t-shirt, or any dark background.
echo refe’s sentiments. if not #5, i’d go with #1…as good looking as any of the others
I like #5, Bruce.

#5 is sort of good, but I think it would suit the name more to add something like this:
