    [WTB] Community SLS spare parts

    If you have any Community SLS spare parts on the shelf collecting dust and you no longer own the boxes and need some shelf space... I have a place you can re-locate the parts to. I am looking for fly bars/hardware for the SLS960s. Possibly looking for a pair of SLS920 and pole mount adapters.

    [FS] RCF TTP4A

    Well, time has come and looking to sell my very versatile RCF TTP4A's and upgrade*/change the rig around a little bit. I've done everything from 50 people solo jazz show to 3000-5000 people outdoors at a community event. Since day one, they've been traveled in a UnderCoverNYC F1 'bag' covers...

    Why are the x32 & M32 products only available at Sweetwater?

    before/during COVID Music Tribe pull all distribution from the regional marketing reps and worked a deal with Sweetwater to become the Sole Supplier for the USA. You're local store can still be a "dealer" for Midas/Behringer, but don't expect to get any good deals on them as they have to go...

    Synergy horns vs Line arrays

    Yes, we know Tom does great things and puts out some impressive products. Each has their own pro's & con's and when buying any speakers, you need to know your market. If you going after Touring Bands, Danley is on the very bottom of the acceptability lists. But I know many regional operators...

    Synergy horns vs Line arrays

    They are different flavors... each speaker/line array has its own purpose/design. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

    Passive Wedges - what good ones are out there?

    The SRX712M/STX812M had like a price tag of like $1000each, so I'd stay around the $1000-1500 each.

    250 cap venue for "bass heavy" music... will a 2x18 do it proper?

    Well a 2x18 comes in various levels of performance. 8000w doesn't tell us much about the amp. Like is that that 8000w bridged @ 4ohm or is that a 4ch amp capable of doing 2000w per channel @ 8 ohms. Curious... what is already in there? whats your budget, new or used?

    Passive Wedges - what good ones are out there?

    I've been out of the market for a bunch of years and back then the SRX712m was the go to wedge for the "B-Level" acts. When I jumped back in, I picked up some powered wedges... While do I like powered wedges, I hate running twice the cables and trying to figure out power drops & extension cords...

    I feel like I've seen a few episodes from Mike Holmes about sound proofing between town homes.

    EAW RS Series

    They've been out for a while, but don't seem to be pushed as much like the EV and JBL brands. The RS1#1 is like a PRX and the RS1# is like the SRX800 level with different flavors of sound.

    To or Not To invest in SMAART.

    Should I do it or talk me out of it? After this weekend, seeing the FOH/System tech do his thing with SMAART and time aligned correct the PA (flown d&b) and heard it cleaned up the sound. And we got talking about my system (he’s heard it before) and because I’m mixing brands, we’re thinking...
