[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 82344, member: 30"] Re: Making the next step in the PA biz... Let's hear your thoughts A little while ago I was talking to one of my "mentors" back when I was getting started (30 some yrs ago.) He is STILL running the same PA cabinets he did then-and some of the same amps. New consoles and processing however. He told me "This stuff was paid for DECADES ago and I don't have to move it. I have kids that want to get into the "biz" and they are happy to carry it-stack etc-just to be a part of "rock -n-roll". He is one of the few rental guys who is actually making money with his gear NOT paying for loans/leases etc. He and his clients don't care what the gear is-just that it gets the job done. And yes a lot of it is Altec VOTT-JBL 4560's-large HEAVY horns and so forth. [/QUOTE]
