[QUOTE="Tim Perry, post: 32779, member: 94"] Re: QSC K12 and KSub Sticking with the 'is is good to rent theme" the K series cloth bags provide only a modest amount of transport protection. The Mic/line function is only moderately useful. How many events can you get away with a single mic with no EQ? The 7.5 tilt down function is well engineered, and when used appropriately can significantly improve a show. I really like it but for general purpose rentinal... how many renters will get it right? As i have commented on before, the 1,000 watt has got to be mostly marketing hype. It's a 500W amp into a 2 ohm LF speaker + a horn. It still does a respectable job but it is what it is. When used as floor monitors I have had the XLR fall out on a couple of occasions. This is pretty embarrassing and irritating. I don't know if it was careless insertion or vibration or something else. I can say that on most shows where I deploy the K's I get very positive comments from the artists. One show was a fiasco... heavy metal with a "band engineer". I deployed a couple only because I has a couple JBLs stolen. I think they may have shut down... I don't know the band was so freekin loud that I was in pain the whole time even with plugs in.
