[QUOTE="Jim King, post: 67561, member: 156"] Re: QSC K10 or EV ELX112P I worried about the complexity of that panel when I switched my small stuff over to the K10. Turned out not to be much of a problem. Oddly enough... the fact that it looks more complicated seems to make people stop and think about it for a second. Back when I had powered boxes for this purpose with only XLR in and out a a couple of dials, I would regularly get calls from people saying "it doesn't work!"... and it turned out to be that they'd forgotten to plug the power cord in. With the K10, I get less calls like that. People seem to figure it out. I do put gaff tape over the inputs that they shouldn't use. I think that helps. If you tape off the A side, you also don't have to worry about them plugging a line source into it and switching the thing over to "mic" level. Having used them as my "small speaker" for several years now, I still like them a lot. Because they sound good up to a pretty loud volume, I can handle just about everything in that 'small' range with them -- public speaking, house parties, in-store DJs, spread around for large events... sometimes as stage monitors. They're a great multi-use tool. It means I can cover a whole lot of market segments with just one box. [/QUOTE]
