Re: Seeking to upgrade from a B rig to an A rig



You STILL need to have a power distro, and you will need more power cables to replace the speaker cables.


A properly setup amp rack is no more complicated that having to run separate input cables to various powered speaker cabinets.  There is just as much chance for an error.  The larger the rig gets the more the possibility of errors.


I would not compare the sound of your passive rig to the powered rig.  If it is not setup properly or is of poor quality-then that is all it is.  There is no reason a powered rig should 'automatically" sound better than a "passive" rig.    If one is of poor quality, then that is the loudspeakers design-NOT whether it is powered or passive.
