 Re: Best gear for Stick? I like this idea. It's affordable and easily customized. https://www.musictri.be/Categories/Behringer/Signal-Processors/Loudspeaker-Management/DCX2496/p/P0B6H[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5wA1sBQN2g[/youtube]

Re: Best gear for Stick? You could wire your cabs with three inputs each and use that in lieu of building a pair of crossovers, possibly saving money in the process; however, you would not be free to use your cabs as normal cabs. That is why I suggest building the crossovers.

Re: Best gear for Stick? This particular device has an interesting feature that allows you to set up the speaker delays by using a microphone placed in key spots as a feedback system. Room acoustics play a big part in how well your cabs perform. I like the idea of future proofing a cab. If I ever wanted to upgrade the system, I wouldn't have to redesign the crossover and could recycle the driver components for an updated system. I'm not too concerned about the money end of things, as I like to invest in technology. It's all about finding the best sound. My Strymon Trio will fit into this stereo system very well.

Re: Best gear for Stick? I hope that it will serve you well, rather than reduce your future options. I should note that the speaker-delay function you mentioned is a common feature of such processors.

Re: Best gear for Stick? I'm working towards a wireless system. I'd like to purchase individual amps for each driver. DCX2496 audio signals will be sent to each powered cab. PS: The second set of Eminence driver components arrived today. Robstafarian wrote: I hope that it will serve you well, rather than reduce your future options.

Re: Best gear for Stick? I've decided to cover the rack and cabs with Panama Red Tolex. The cabs will have black corners, handles and grill cover. I bought these components in Canada. https://nextgenguitars.ca/products/tolex-basketweave-panama-red-by-yard-54-wide.htmlRobstafarian wrote: WerkSpace wrote: I'd like to purchase individual amps for each driver.

Re: Best gear for Stick? Robstafarian wrote: My first impressions: - There is not much low-frequency extension.
- Its dispersion pattern might complicate sound reinforcement and piss off the sound engineer.
- Loudness is relative, with regard to live sound, and 106dB is about what a 4x12 guitar cab loaded with Celestion Vintage 30s puts out—ignoring said speaker's notorious midrange spike—when fed one watt (hence, two watts to a 2x12 or four watts to a 1x12 with the same speaker).
I have a Spacestation and it works very well with the Stick if you pair it with stereo effects and a sub. I use a Line 6 Helix with it. It is perfect for small to medium sized venues. I have used it with no issues at Farmer’s Markets and small clubs. It also works well as a monitor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
