[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 59445, member: 30"] Re: Carvin Line Array In Stock We all have stories of "real gear" that has failed-and caused all different kinds of problems. I was doing a gig with a famous band that shall remain nameless and one of the KT DN360's on 2 of the monitor mixes started making all kinds of noise. So much as to be unusable. Of course it started right when the hedliner was setting up to go on. The monitor guy for the band said "Yeah they do that from time to time-just bypass it". But if I had DOD or Peavey in the rack-AND THEY WERE WORKING- he would have bitched at them. It is often how the "real gear" gets a "free pass" when it fails-but the cheaper gear gets accoused of all sorts of things-even when it is working just fine. I had another FOH guy INSIST that NO PEAVEY gear be used. I Said that I had a autograph in the FOH rack that I just used as an RTA and it was not in the signal chain. He INSISTED that I remove it. I said I can just turn it off-no big deal. NO IT HAD TO BE REMOVED! He was VERY insistant that all Peavey gear "contaminates the ground and causes noise in the system-even when it is off and unplugged". I don't make this stuff up. ANd yes at the gig-I left it in the rack and he made me remove it. Believe me-the Peavey gear was NOT the problem with his mix-just sayin'. And what the BSS 360's that came up in the default mode and hundreds of thousands of people had no delays for the concert at the tearning down of the Berlin wall? And we could go on and on. Yeah sometimes cheap gear fails. Sometimes the expensive gear fails to. Ever been to a high end auto dealership and see all the cars in for repair? If they were so good-why do they have a repair shop? [/QUOTE]
