Re: XF210 hands-on review and gig report

I must have missed it earlier in the thread, so can anyone please tell me: What are the standard dimensions of the XF210 cab, angled version? In particular, I need to know whether it is, or can easily be made to be, at least 8.5 inches deep on the top, as I have an amp head that needs at least that ...

Re: PA speaker management modules

Michael, I have to ask... have you looked at SAC ? If you're thinking about getting a mixer and speaker management system, a SAC system can do both, and do both better (more features, more flexibility, etc). You can build a 24in/24out system with good gear (no Behringer) for the same or less than t...

Re: New member musician from NYC

Ok then, but you'll be missing out on some high performance bass cabs! Believe me, I've already got some high-performance bass cabs: a pair of Low Down Sound "nEarful" 12/6/1 cabs (close to fEarful spec), a pair of Acme Sound B112 FullRange cabs, a pair of Baer Amplification M112 cabs, an...

Re: New member musician from NYC

Thanks again for all the feedback, gents. But I'm definitely not looking for more bass cabs - I'm all set there. My interest here, for the foreseeable future, is centered exclusively on PA systems; particularly the BFM subwoofers and tops. 8)

Duly noted. Thanks for your feedback.

Now then, shall we return to the original topic? More news & views about speaker management modules?

Re: PA speaker management modules

By the way.....I'd buy two Presonus Studio/live 16 channel mixers and link 'em before I'd even consider a Behringer mixer.....if you can do with 24 channels, get the Studio/Live 24. Yeah, I expressed this same sort of skepticism last week when I had a chat with one of the sales guys at Sweetwater S...

PA speaker management modules

Am currently scoping out components for a compact, modular, scalable touring PA system for a four-piece band, to be configured at some point in the future, possibly late this year, early next year. Very tentatively (at this point), it would probably include something like (4) DR200s + (8) T39s. And ...

Re: Need Opinions On Gear Selection...

Congratulations on the nice score, Lou. I'd be interested in knowing how well that DriveRack performs for you, once you've learned how to use it. Does anyone else have opinions/user experiences to share re: speaker management modules? The Carvin XD360 and the dbx DriveRack PA+ are both currently on ...

Re: PEAVEY IPR 1600

As far as I can tell you only buy these for the lightweight power, not for DSP. This sort of anticipates my noob question: For all you IPR users, is there any particular reason to buy the DSP-enabled version(s), if you are already planning to use a standalone speaker management module for your syst...

Re: New member musician from NYC

Many thanks for the warm welcomes, gents... I've continued to search & lurk, search & lurk - mostly in the "Reviews" subforum. That, plus I've had a couple of email exchanges with Robby Hoinsky, the nearest authorized BFM builder to NYC. It is hard to believe that the BFM pro sound...

New member musician from NYC

Hi all, As you can see, I'm a brand new noob to the BFM forum. The name's Michael. I'm a transplanted Midwesterner from Michigan; have lived in New York City now for 18 years. I'm a musician. Main instrument is the electric bass. I created my profile only a few days ago, though I don't intend to pos...
