[QUOTE="Chad Young, post: 88105, member: 699"] Re: Electro voice elx passive If you do, you won't be powering them for very long. These are light to medium duty cabs. If you put 700W into them, you will be replacing them very soon. High-pass at 100Hz and keep them around 300W would be better. I have the active ELX cabs and while they are handy and good sounding cabs, they are not the best choice for the conditions above, IMnHO. I use mine for stage monitors on quieter stages, or FOH for indoor gigs < 200 people. Like Ryan said, they do not get exceedingly loud. My advice: instead of a pair of ELX passive per side for your FOH needs, step up to a pair of more capable speakers. I will say, though, that four passive ELX cabs, if you add some plastic feet on the angled side, could make for a handy pack of stage wedges if you do not need stupid volume. Good luck and let us know how this all works out for you. [/QUOTE]
