A drill, some drill bits, little bit of wire and a soldering iron and you'll have an xlr mono summing box for $30, just follow the diagram on the rane notes.
BTW I use the unbalanced (RCA) homemade box made from the same instructions.

Stereo is a big waste of time outside your loungeroom. Most of your audience is far closer to one cab or the other, making it better to run mono. To do that you simply run left and right into mono channels and pan them both middle. You take one to your DSP or DSP amp and it's done. Some old recordings are heavily panned but this puts everything in the middle and mono.

If you're planning on buying powered tops, don't, build some OT12 and run them mono.

If you already have powered tops, most of them have a highpass, so run the other channel to one and daisy to the other.

Please will one of the moderators merge this and the other thread or lock this one down, whatever, two threads on one setup puzzle is a pain in the arse.

Junk. Unreliable and :bull: power specs.

I will stop posting in this thread thus negating a need to check it, all further posts can be seen in the setup thread.
