A project I built a year ago, but just don't need them for anything, so they've been sitting. Now that I've invested in the Sound Physics Labs TD1 cabinets, these are even less of a priority. Here's the skinny. Small 12" two way trap cabinet, all 18mm Baltic Birch plywood, dadoed...

Picked up some used Sound Physics Labs TD1, the predecessor to the Danley SH46. While not quite the beast the SH46 is, it is still a very good loudspeaker(3db less efficient, phase response not quite as good). First gigs this weekend, back to back on Friday and Saturday. This is The Willis...

September 25th, and the Irish American Heritage Center in Chicago. One block east of the Edens and Kennedy expressway junction. I've been wanting to audition both these loudspeakers in situ, and I'll get to do it next week. Not a shoot out, they are in two different price categories. If...

I posted awhile ago with a feeler, and will try again. I have designed an oak lectern with some classic clean lines, very solidly built using veneered plywood and solid wood trim. Pass thru holes to dress wires and cables. Options: Rack rail Littlite mount Microphone mount Dolly...

I've nearly completed a lectern as some here may know from my Facebook postings. Turns out someone wanted a pair for their company, so I figured I'd put it out here on the forums and see if anyone else was interested. White Oak plywood, 3/4" thick, with solid White Oak trim. Shelves are all...

Ideally, if anyone has a used(in good shape though) Shure MX418C, get in touch, I just built a lectern that will have a small audio system on board, but I plan to install a switch and XLR jack to take the lectern mic signal to an external sound system when desired. Thanks, John

Anyone know or recommend a tripod stand that can get up around 10' high, and be strong enough for a standard clamp on an instrument? I don't need to hang a ton of lights, one crossbar or arm is plenty. Or... I need to make or get a couple of 50lb. bases for a 10' run of schedule 40 iron...

I've been stashing some extra shekels away, in hopes of buying an A&H QU-16, when now comes along the debut of the QSC Touch Mix. I know the possible risks of buying the first version, but for pub gigs, corporate stuff(if the channel count syncs), etc., the Touch Mix seems like the way to go...

Got a call from Mike Grimm of CSS Audio in East Peoria. He's been a long time Danley products owner, including sixteen of the old Servodrive Basstech 7 subwoofers. Well, some of the subs were crippled due to lack of parts availability anymore, and there's always been gearhead chat about...

Out to Vegas for slightly belated 26th anniversary weekend with my lovely wife. She was looking around the Vega intergooglewebs for a possible show. Tells me Santana is playing. I go, "Oh, probably out back at the MGM arena where we saw The Police a few years ago?" She goes, "No, it says...

I'm out of town. Irish music, headliner with opener, all acoustic. Headliner will be a singer with back up. Nice pub, Peggy Kinane's in downtown Arlington Heights. If you're available, I'll get you the promotor's contact info(I've known him for many years). [email protected]...

A friend is performing at a first time Celtic festival in NE Iowa this June. He's helping to try and line up sound and lights(minimal). It sounds like they have a budget that at least is not a slap in the face. This is what I know at the moment: 40x160 tent Two semi flatbed...

The Henhouse Prowlers, great bluegrass band from Chicago, had their van broken into while on tour in Oakland, CA. I've mixed these guys, some great musicians. See the attached image for details. This sucks. John

The drivers are the B&C 15HPL76W, I've had them sitting on a shelf for a while, debating what I was going to do with them. I've got another pair loaded into a pair of two trap boxes, which are not used often, although they work well as a "full range" on sticks-they only weigh 54lbs., using 18mm...

Although a nice excersise, it still really doesn't save any money... Today's work, an eight channel sub snake, with Gepco cable, Medusa stage box, and Whirlwind numbered xlr connectors on the fan out. Best regards, John

I'm thinking of getting a projector. I use an InFocus 2102 that belongs to the venue I do most of my work at, but.... I think one of the VGA inputs doesn't work. It's only 800x600 SVGA. The throw distance is a bit short for the largest use it sees-from the front row of the auditorium...

Brian Donnelly, producer of "In Love with the Dance", is touring, and has three shows in November that I can't work: 11/19 Carroll University, Waukesha, WI 11/21 Egyptian Theater, DeKalb, IL 11/22 Riviera Theater, Three Rivers, MI The show website's contact page...

I have four of these from a pub I do work at. Two basement floods this year. The main issue is moldy cabinets. The fiberglass is a puke green color now. I could of course build replacements, and that may be an option if there is enough insurance money. The other possibilities include...

The Evanston Ethnic Arts Festival. Lake Michigan is 50m to my right, thank goodness-unfortunately the stage faces South, so performers got hot, even though there was shade on 60% of the deck-which unfortunately had Marley covering it. Peavey DTH4's over EV MTL2's for the mains. Soundtech...

There have been some noticeable great deals on mixers here on Chicago's Craigslist this week. I was pretty sure they were the usual scam, and here's a response I got to a posting for an LS9: ************************************************************************ "Hello, My name is...
