Re: Y-Splitters instead of a mixer

I know that most of 'em love the color red and try their best to get every light in the signal chain to be that color. You really don't want to split the L and R to go to different places.....your source material is stereo, so you'll only get half in the monitors and half in the FOH....so, difinitel...

Re: Y-Splitters instead of a mixer

Good morning legends, I'm aiming to simplify a FOH plus DJ monitor setup. Originally l was going to use a 4 channel mixer (Xenyx802) for signals to the DSPs. However l'm now entertaining using Y-splitters from the DJ decks to the DSP & amps, and using input gain controls in the DCX2496 and FBQ3...

Re: Suitable driver for SLA Pro?

Good Afternoon Bill, Would this version of the Alphalite work in the SLA Pro or as spares for 6A's :idea: ? Looks like an OEM, 16 Ohm variant from Eminence. If so, that'd be a smok'n hot deal. :shock: Specs are at the bottom of the page in this link from Madisound: https://www.madisoundspeakerstore...

Re: Solid/Joined wood for cabs?

Hi, Regarding solid wood, I was considering using maple, walnut or other hardwood for the carcass. Is one hardwood better than another for its acoustical properties? Also, the cabinet depth of the XF 212 is greater than the 8 inches mentioned above so 2 boards would need to be joined to get the pro...

Awesome. A single t39 takes about 40volts (atleast with the KappaLITE 3012LF)?
My plans say that the 3012LF should be limited to 55v. (mine is a BP102 with a 35v limit).
Tom's correct....but, don't forget - It is also highpass dependent. Make sure that you are highpassing at 45hz at least.

Re: limiter set but dosent reach 60v

https://youtube.com/shorts/5rwgwijP3Bo?si=7rE6PRUKYslX_HOp Well......I seriously doubt it. You were changing a digital setting in the source material. But, everthing that passes through your system is analog and doesn't know or care what the bit rate is. But, I did notice that your readings were bo...

Re: T39 maintenance

Did you remove the covers and check the drivers? I'll bet they can be tightened after 10 years. Plus, this happened to me and my driver was shredded. It worked at low volume, then started farting out with more power.

Re: setting power amps on subwoofers?

Just finished a tuba 24 build, loving it for EDM and synth stuff with the low bass. Looking at a titan 39 next for regular bass drum / upright bass / sousaphone shows. I roll in with an assortment of XLRs but do not have (nor want) much in the way of speaker cables. Ideally id love to be able to se...

For some reason digital, 0-100 volt AC meters are exceedingly rare.
You certainly can, but it will be boucing around like crazy.

Re: Inline AC voltage meter

Problem is that it will jump around based on every note sent through the cable....and it isn't even a digital readout. Honestly don't see what it can tell you since the info you get won't really mean anything.

Re: Old Man with Hearing Issues

Have you considered some new hearing aids? A buddy of mine got some a couple of years back with iPhone control. He has different EQ settings for General, Music, etc.....music sounds much better to him now. Most hearing aids are EQed to boost the human vocal range for conversations.....but, that suck...
