Re: XR1220 Output not working in certain modes with stage box and snake

When you say you're running the speakers "through the four returns" do you mean you have a power snake with speaker level wire built in and you are using the powered outs on the XR1220? Or do you mean that you are using the line-level outputs on the 1220 and going through TRS/XLR returns on the snak...

Re: BAFFLED??How to get into a vintage 122PT pa speaker

I'm not familiar with this particular model, but for many years Peavey used industrial velcro to hold the grills on. Take a stout flathead screwdriver and work it in between the end of one of the silver strips and the cabinet and pry. When it comes time to re-attach the grill, lay the grill in place...

Just want to make sure here, I am going to add a 32 band EQ. Right now I simply have line from my mixer, to an amp, and then out to my mains. My question,,,do I put the EQ after the mixer and prior to the amp? Thanks
In short, yes.

Re: Backline Amplifier Recommendation

Thanks for the reply, Stryker57. We are going to look into professional services, at least as you suggest to get an idea of what a working system that meets our needs would be composed of. However, I have to admit we are not confident we are going to find anybody in this rural part of eastern Monta...

Re: Need the best microphone for professional streaming/online business consulting.

Shotgun? No.

If it's just you that the microphone needs to pickup, I'd look for a cardoid headset mic.

Re: Backline Amplifier Recommendation

What dedmeet said. I'm even going to go out on a limb and suggest that the cabinets you have specified are probably not the right ones for you venue. I would also suggest that you take a serious look at powered cabinets as you can often get better performance, a less complicated set-up, and they're ...

Re: What kind of speaker is this?

The logo is early-mid 90's, I do believe. I'd be doubtful that you'd find a direct replacement all these years later.

Re: Need some help with a PA system

If you can get to the wires inside the cabinet, tap the battery terminals directly to the horn leads. If it sounds off that way, then the crossover is bad. I would never test a horn Driver with a 9 volt battery and would be cautious testing a horn directly with a 1.5 volt battery I've done it about...

Re: Needing info

I'm sure there is somebody somewhere who thinks it's valuable. Some folks like vintage gear. To the general market, however, it's worth a little more than nothing. Sorry. If you can get anything it'll be $50-100.00.

That's been my experience in my shop, anyway.

Re: PvxP problems

So I’ll start with I absolutely love this sub, so much actually that I bought 4 of them. I use 2 pvxp12’s for the mains and it sounds awesome. Unfortunately there was a 6-12 month span I purchased them over. So the first difference I noticed is that the first pair I bought had the expansion slot an...

Re: FX16 mixer - - Feedback Ferret

IMHO, you're going about it backwards. The method you're using is preferred in the studio due to it's minimizing the signal to noise ratio but it isn't my preferred method for live sound. Here's a video for you:

Re: QW system for sale

If anybody is into traditional iron amps, they should snag those GPS up. Those were the best amps Peavey ever made and, IMHO, some of the best amps made by ANYBODY.
