As I own the PA technically I will never need my big amp again for a big gig with pro PA support, I could take both 735s and a di box! are you some kinda b*stard trying to kill rock n roll now? What about the dinosaurs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingrayPete1977 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Nope they'll be around for a while yet, "how can something that can produce the entire range of frequencies from dub bass to the shortest strings of a harp possibly produce 'my sound', and how can it ruin the FOH mix like an Ampeg fridge?".

And dent the walls as you get it up the stairs to those flea pit tiny venues that hold ten people in an upstairs back room (where an Ampeg fridge is totally necessary) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we are talking girth I guess. Still, I'd take my two 4 inches over a couple of 1 inches any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is a configuration that I would be interested in - but that's only based on the fact that I have tried the Mackie 8" version which sounded great and I have reviewed the Q/Strip that I was blown away with. I expect these two together would be awesome, with the 12" driver instead. How have you been finding it so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Unfortunately the death of Rock n Roll has been slightly postponed. Having organised my week so I would be definitely working from home tomorrow when the RCF was due to be delivered, I've just received a call from Bax Shop telling me that due to an error my speaker won't be out for delivery tomorrow. Not happy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmywinks Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I ordered the tote bag for the QSC on Friday from Bax Shop and it was scheduled for delivery tomorrow, however despite being a UK company they're shipping it from the Netherlands and it still hasn't left the country so I'm not particularly impressed either.

They aren't a UK company despite them having a UK address - a bit like DV247 - they are based in Germany now. I suspect it some tax thing.

lemmywinks Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Ah I didn't know that, still should turn up this week hopefully as I'm gigging at the weekend. They were £7 cheaper than Thomann to their credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Bax are Dutch, and used to be obviously so, they only got their site looking like a UK one to ensnare more customers in the last year or so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I run the speaker and the Q Strip at 0db (12 o'clock) and it's plenty loud in our 4 piece band with loud drummer. The Q Strip just makes eq'ing the room so much easier too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were good enough to phone me up and apologise, but it was after 5 pm when they did, so too late for me to do anything constructive about re-arranging my time until next week. If it wasn't for the fact that they are significantly cheaper on this item than everyone else I would have probably cancelled my order.

Not that it's an issue - I'm on the Mk3 - theres nothing worthwhile about the Mk4 that would want me to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
