Re: Reasonably Priced Large Format Line Arrays




Thanks for the help, yea if i was going to stick with ground stacking I would probably just go KF850 but I'll tell you some of the main reasons I decided against that even though they are attractively priced....


1) Shipping them to me initially would be quite expensive as compared to buying a new line array or other system from a manufacturer that offers free shipping

2) They weigh a ton and would require a minimum of 3-4 guys to stack them and on occasion its just me and 1 other person deploying a rig (line arrays can be easily lifted out of cases by the sumners) :)

3) They will take up too much trailer space in an already packed 24ft auto hauler

4) I have no way to get them higher than just stacking on subs, we do a multipurpose center semiannually where another company use to stack an 850 rig on the ground and the horns were not clearing the audience enough to really throw with clarity to the back of the room.


I know you guys don't like the TVI gear for various reasons but I've now talked to about 6 of their customers and I only got 1 bad review and that was from a guy that had one of the earliest runs of them.
