[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 90804, member: 158"] Re: "Best" wedge(monitor) My knowledge on this subject is a little dated, but i tend to agree with Eric here. The Sound co. i worked for had a large complement of 'proprietary' wedges. yes, it sometimes took a little bit more conversation to have them be accepted. But frankly, the biggest stumbling block wasn't that they were proprietary, it was that they used 1" horns. Still, i don't even recall a time that we had to subrent wedges or lost a show because of it. Maybe it happened, but it was rare. Of course the real key was that the wedges were built well with quality components and well maintained, so the BE and/or the band always had a good day with them. In fact, we had quite a few folks want to buy some from us. ultimately the Sound Co. bought a pile of SM500s just to satisfy the 'everything louder than everything else' crowd. But the proprietary boxes still saw a LOT of use for many years after that.... [/QUOTE]
