My point is more that Evan didn't like the "rig", but is blaming the line array hang which is just one part of "the rig".
Maybe there was a problem with the processors...just because they were Dolby Lakes doesn't mean they couldn't have been setup wrong on accident, or that there is a malfunction in some wiring somewhere.
The thing that ticks me off(not just about this particular situation, but in general here) is that some people make such prejudicial negative statements about a product without barely a drop of information....like who actually tuned the system, are all the drivers operational, are they all in phase, are the processors all set correct, are they all set the same, and on and on and on. There are million variables in a properly tuned system of that size and to just make a blanket statement like "Soundbridge sucks" is irresponsible, unproductive, and possible damaging to their business through no fault of their design or "recommended" setup.
That stuff is right up there with the hundreds of "those mic pre's sound like crap" comments on this forum to me. If you can single out the difference of the mic pres in a soundcraft vs an Allen & Heath then good for you....just quit wasting my time by telling me what you think you hear, because there are 12 other pieces of equipment in the signal chain that could be causing the sound difference you THING you hear.
I have no doubt that the system Evan worked on probably sounded like hell compared to others he's worked on, but blaming that bad sound solely on the speakers is stupid period.
And just to clarify...I don't work for Soundbridge nor have they paid me to say this. It could be Nady speakers for all I care.
The spilled drink and digital snake comments were just examples of crazy stuff that could be wrong without your knowledge.
