Kevin Dean Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Anyone use them to stop punters putting drinks on PA subs ? I worry about my EV powered subs , only take one pint to go over . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 They work - there's only one problem. They look SHHHHHH1T! Guess it depends on your venue you - wedding photos immediately look rubbish if they are in shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They work... and made well - but you could fashion your own up from bits down Wickes and some gaffa is you are that way inclined. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I really can't see the justification in their pricing if I'm honest. There's got to be a diy method that makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Get a printing firm to do you bespoke table tent cards. Cut a hole at the top if you need to drop a speaker pole into the sub. You'd need large ones but you could have your bands logo on them. The sub safes would have worked out at 260 quid for our Peavey MK11 subs. Crazy money.

CameronJ Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Looks to me like a DIY alternative could easily be thrown together for pennies but, for what it’s worth, I don’t think the Subsafes are any more ugly than the average “naked” sub would be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Just put a pair of dirty boxers on the sub, not many will want to put their drink on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertbass Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Cut a cardboard box in half, corner to corner, so you end up with 2 pyramids. Cut a hole for the pole in the top. Paint black and you're done. Or, sell them for £199 the pair! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lurksalot Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I saw a very elegant solution by a DJ at a party , he had some white cloth wrapped around the pole from under the top that draped around the sub , this was then backlit and looked really good , though I supppose black cloth might work as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
