[QUOTE="Chris Johnson, post: 117408, member: 975"] re: New Yamaha QL Console at Frankfurt OK. But looking at that for a second. Right now, from a european website with competitive pricing an LS9-16 is £4000, and a LS9-32 is £6000 At those MSRP prices, the QL1 and QL5 are £5100 and £9900 respectively. Now, I can normally expect less 20% at least, so thats £4080 and £7920. So the QL1 looks like exactly an LS-9 replacement to me! Not to mention that includes a 64x64 dante interface, Dugan mixer and double the aux count! Now the QL5 is more money, sure. But a GLD 112 bundle (so with some inputs) is still £6k, so its not on a different planet... And the QL5 is less/the same money than an Si Performer 3, Vi1, SD9, Pro2, etc... And lets not forget: All you guys looking for a real M7 replacement; the QL5 is it. Its spec-for-spec similar to an M7 (more inputs though) and even with racks will be less... However, these prices do confirm my theory that i'd be better off owning 2 QL1s and cascading them for bigger shows... [/QUOTE]
