FYI...the website homepage says that all speakers excluding Eminence are 15% off...Still a nice find if you're looking for something in another brand... Ouch! I'm really sorry if I sent anybody off on a goose chase. The ad they sent via email specifically features Eminence as one of the brands on s...

With the sale BP 102s are $64 with the discount. We used these in our Tuba 30s 3 years ago and they are still working great.

I am not affiliated, just a happy customer...


AES has all speakers on sale this month, 15% off web orders using code "JEN15". With the discount a 3012HO or LF is $160, and a Lab 12 is $149. Not bad!

Thanks Bill.

Hey, Do you know how many volts you're sending to your drivers? I'm not sure but aren't the drivers you have able to do about 30 volts each? That should make some respectable SPL. We (he, the DJ) is using a small analog multimeter to monitor voltage levels. We have been using 30VAC as our limit, an...

My version has combination inputs, it accepts 1/4" and XLR... I'm in the UK but this US site has the same: (big pic) http://c804221.r21.cf2.rackcdn.com/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/p/e/pev-ipr1600_2.jpg DOH! (smacking sound). Looks like you are right. I though...

As a way to get into the DJ thing inexpensively we had started out with all used gear. That meant large heavy equipment, sometimes sonically compromised too. Last week one of the amps started to act up, and so we bought a new Peavey IPR 1600 which is now driving the T30s. Lets just say the Peavey is...

Re: break in: now that they have been used for about 10 hrs they are probably broken in. If not they will be after the next gig or two. In comparison with the big box subs they replaced, the new subs have better (deeper) bottom and seem to "excite" the room better. However, at 60-100hz I t...

Out of interest, what amp is it and what kinda setup is he running? Are you using a single amp for both tops and subs? If not there's the possibility of running both pair of subs in parallel... He runs an old Altec 1269 and an old Gemsound 550 amp. Each pushes around 125-150 watts/ch into 8 ohms, a...

Gardening? Awesome thats what I do for a crust if you want to talk horticulture I'm all ears! Its approaching Autumn here - so you must be coming into Spring yeah? Busy time for green fingers I take it. Really early for planting here, but one could put in lettuce and such right now. We had a 70 deg...

Thanks guys (I assume guys...) Yep, taking a break. The other issue is that we (he) doesn't have enough amp power to push another pair with BP102s, nor a replacement set of Lab 12s in the current cabs. As they sit, the crossover is running wide open and the amp is running at 7-8 to hit the 30v limit...

Hi everyone. Well, the T30s are done and in service! They have actually been finished since the end of January but I didn't get around to posting... Please see pics of the completed units at the bottom of the page: http://imageevent.com/beales/other/speakerbuild Note to self: Pictures of satin black...

Outstanding demo with the stuff on the table!

:hyper: Very nice man! :clap: Our Lowes does not have arauco last time I checked, but I've already got a stack of BB. What sizes are those sheets?...if 4x8 that seems quite a deal. Donny Yep. 4x8 sheets. I didn't notice our store had it at first, and the guy in the apron never heard of it. Then I l...

Finally some pics... As we didn't finish the build over the holiday the pace has been somewhat slower the past week. Still we are only two large pieces (the bottom and side) away from having all the big parts done. Oh, and half a dozen smaller pieces - braces and corner reflectors. Pics are too big ...
