High volume sound to trigger a pre-recorded message/alarm

Thank you very much Peter,

you gave me the right direction for everything!

There are sound shields for incoming sound and spectrum analyzing like this one: http://bliptronics.com/item.aspx?ItemID=116
and there are sound shields for playing sounds like this one: Audio Shield for Arduino

it looks like it could work together to me, just a noob question: can i have 2 shields one one Arduino?

Thanks,

Roy.
