  • if you have mixed on that thing for quite a few years you're not doing something right.

  • frequencies that hurt the human ear? code for not loud enough.

  • Yes ACDC toured with the force series.

  • And his Behringer eq's sound awesome too....

  • Thumbs up if you really hate Mackie.

  • Wow! This is my passion too but I don't know where to find work anymore :/ I agree with everything this guy said. Interesting; I never new EV made speakers with that technology, i've always had to make a cut in the 3-5k range on the graphic. Anyway, cool stuff.. I hope to get back into doing this work more often!!

  • I dont know if you know this but I think when you grow up your going to be Gay, I can tell the way you talk and smile. Fight it, you were not born that way, its a choice.

  • @broocksba you have ts-42 where are you located I and how many do you have? i only have two old jbls sr4718 and two new yorkville ls1208. I wanted to get the 21s like cerwin vegas ts42 or yorkvilles ls2104 but buget won allow it.. and when hear them A and B test I fall for the ls1208.. but I still want to get some 21s

  • @broocksba you are rigth the RMX line are the strongest (heaviest, and amp demanding) amps from QSC. Im saying RMX are for DJ price wise... RMX are very afortable but in my opion is not worth. how do you feel when carring or draggin that 140lb rack with only 2 AMPS THOSE AMPS ARE SUPER HEAVY and not power effience.

    olso lack of power cause lots of heaches...

    about power conditioners allowing you to.... place a greater deman on your amplifier without throwing or triping a breaker.. how?

  • I have 8 QSC RMX series amps for my mains (TriAmp tops with SUBS) and after 2 years on the road the gain pots have gone to crap on ALL of them. The first thing I have to do after un-lidding my racks is ask someone to run the volume knobs back and forth. Has QSC made any attempt to fix this? In the middle of a show I will stil loose my mids or SUBS and I will have to leave front of house to go screw around with the pots until they come back.
