[QUOTE="Evan Kirkendall, post: 32242, member: 5"] Re: Up in smoke! Bennett, I've got a Lake Contour in front of everything. I don't think that's where my problem is. :) The Lake serves primarily as EQ, crossover and a stop sign for the techs driving the rig. The limiters have a slow attack, and don't really kick in until you're really beating on the speakers. Silas, I run a SOS company these days. Main focus is dry rentals with the usual local rock shows on top of that. I've had good luck with other Mackie gear in the past. I've got 6 SRM450's that get beat into the ground on a weeky basis and they just keep going.
