[QUOTE="gordon mcgregor, post: 55629, member: 169"] Re: EV Xi1183A opinions? You'd need more of them and as Jeff said there would really need to be some form of low mid in there which would be more weight, also there is still that rider thing, which may not be a huge issue but will I assure you make the rig an easier sell especially if you're pushing it a bit. The 1183 can do quieter gigs without any subs or maybe just a couple on an aux. (then Gordon remembers who he's talking to, ignore the last sentence). If it were me I'd take the four EV boxes the all in weight won't be so different, sure it comes in bigger chunks but if you're careful you'll be ok. One question, must you use such heavy amps? the ones that I've used had EV P3000s etc driving them and it was actually the amp racks that were the menace when moving the system around.
