[QUOTE="Brian Harden, post: 6508, member: 1123"] Hi all! It looks like the band I engineer for picked up a weekend show in Vail for a Tough Mudder event. We're out of Milwaukee and this particular show is the only one outside our radius where it makes sense to bring our truck/gear. I'm looking for quotes for PA and backline for a 4 piece rock/pop band. In the past, we have used a Turbosound FlexArray (3 per side) for this event and this was overkill. The layout for the band is typically pretty shallow (> 100 feet deep), but pretty wide. As such, I think a 2/side SRX rig with corresponding subs (or similar) would fit the bill nicely. I'm more concerned about horizontal coverage than throwing sound terribly far back. backline would consist of drums (standard trap kit), marshall combo or head/cabinet and some decent DI's. Three of our members are on in-ears, which we will be bringing.
