Looks like the venerable EAW SM222 has been resurrected - hopefully with Neo drivers

I had a weird problem several years ago on my expression 1. The shop asked if I somehow got moisture in it because the main card (brains) for it was basically toast. It wouldn’t pass audio and the faders were acting weird.  I went ahead and paid the $1800 or so for a new part and also bought an expression 3 around the same time. Haven’t had any other problems since with either console, knock on wood. I carry both with me to every show as a backup just in case now. I like my Soundcrafts, but I think if one should start having problems at this point it might be easier to replace it rather than repair it. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like Soundcraft has got much in the works for future models or support for current models.

Soundcraft is a dead brand.  When Tom Der left for a competing brand, after being the last man standing at Soundcraft, I knew it was over.  I'd be surprised if there's more to Soundcraft than a phone number that forwards to someone at another Harman brand office.

I'm still new to working with power distribution... I've only been working around that kind of power distribution for a couple of months.

All the times that I have seen tails tied into the wall or a generator, we've hooked them to the distro before energizing them, and I am trying to think about what situations would happen where it's necessary to have power on camlocks before tying them in, but I can't think of them.

Anyhow- is it normal to have "live" cam-lock tails?  Or was the genny operator thinking that the breakers to the legs were open or something?

No, absolutely not. This genny op needed to be sent to the seal room, to think about what he'd done... But seriously, it was very poor practice to do what he did. I should have, but wasn't really in a position to, demanded that he de-energize the tails before he left.

Any questions, please ask!

How many pages would be a non-mini review be?

The enclosures will be painted with ral 2008 orange raptor.

Great!

Hi all!

Introducing the new top 2x12 project for 4 dual subwoofers with Lab 12.

I made the top and subwoofer enclosures to order from 15 mm clasa A birch plywood with the protective grid as in the top project.

The basses are ready, the protective grids still need to be made and I will post pictures of them as soon as possible.

The tops started working this week, they will be equipped with faital pro12 hp1060 and driver eminence PSD 3006 with chimney also made to order.
