[QUOTE="Gene Hardage, post: 97991, member: 185"] Re: Replacing Mains - Weighing Active V Passive It's hot everywhere. When I was trying to use an active PA I bought 2 of those big grey squirrel cage type fans from Home Depot and positioned them on the ground blowing up on all the heat sinks of all 4 active cabs. Now that I'm using a passive rig they get used for drummers etc. Regarding the active vs. passive eternal debate I'll just say it depends on your master plan. If you intend to expand to something fairly large in the future then you have to look at boxes that will either play and splay well together or possibly become side fills as things get bigger. For moderate club and smallish outdoor stages the active stuff is handy 'cause you don't have to do much thinking. It's hard to think when it's hot huh?! [/QUOTE]
