[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 213121, member: 46"] Bill, you mixed up the quotes in your last attempted quote of me. I have nothing whatsoever against Peavey. My comments about the versarray include having spent hundreds of hours using them in various scenarios. I know them well. I know their limitations and stand by my comments. Every speaker design requires compromises. I am sincerely happy they work for you and you have gotten that much long term use out of them. My point is that technology has evolved significantly, and while they might still be usable for your regional events, they simply would not be tolerated by more discerning shows today, around 13 years after they came to market. Take a stroll off axis and listen to around 1-2K where the front loaded woofer gets super beamy and the anemic ribbon driver is crossed too high to be of any help. Not an issue with a premium compression driver or a 3 way design, but one of versarray's main compromises to meet a price point. That's just one example. Cheers [/QUOTE]
