Yeah that would be who I was thinking of.  Allister has been my main contact over the years.

Thanks for the link.

I was not familiar with this niche until the thread was started.  Then some pics of Void Acoustics were on Facebook PA of the day.  Magenta colored cabinets and the aesthetically interesting horns on top of the smaller stack in the middle.  Anybody else heard of these?  Might give the OP some interesting differentiation.  Manufacturers are usually interested in incentifying rental house that are willing to open new markets.

Yes.  I discovered them about a year ago.

I was going to post a link - but I forgot!

I heard what I think was that exact Void rig earlier this year when I was working at the How Weird Street Fair in SF. I liked it quite a bit, though the tops really needed to be flown and aimed better to get coverage to the back.

And while we are "correcting" ------------   

John Digweed first played on a Danley system in Atlanta this same weekend last year.

Carsten Eichstadt   https://www.facebook.com/carsten.eichstadt?fref=ts     
was the first one to paint the cabinets orange.

It has kind of caught on, and other people are having them made in other colors as well-red blue etc

Clarity (out of Charlotte NC) was the first company to take an interest in Danley for EDM shows-several years ago.  They do installs mainly in clubs-but also sports venues.

But I do agree that the Pure Groove relationship is bringing the products more mainstream in that market.

I stand corrected (regarding who coined the color), but from my perspective as someone that has been following your company on the web since its beginning, it is only now where I see real press with respect to this market.  A polish (or was it ukrainian?) club had an install.  There is one in SF, but the partnership with pure groove is what is pushing things.  I was under the impression that pure groove was behind the color because they seemed to be behind the press for a higher profile event in amsterdam which I assume Carsten was involved in.

Anyhow, I wonder which colors are next.  Purple, blue (multiple shades), brown, red, and yellow have already been used in hte last ten years, but I'm sure some of you old farts have seen hte full spectrum.

Carsten was the first one to color the cabinets.  He choose orange because it was a color nobody else was using and would easily stand out and be recognized.

The Pure Groove orange is not quite as "vibrant" but still gets the idea across and they wanted to continue the "look" since it was well received in Germany.

"The Hardpop" club in Mexico city choose a dark red to match their color scheme.

Like JBL badges?

[Ivan Beaver]

Like JBL badges?

Except for the size and the "look" of the exposed horn.

It's pretty hard to find a color that is "decent" and not used before.

Does it have to be funktion one?

Given what you want to do, I'd think about 4 danley dbh218 subs and 2 sh96ho tops to round out a couple stacks

Decided to wait a few days and see if anything else got added.

It's interesting that void and danley especially got plugged all the way through this and I don't think I saw one person say they liked F1. I think it was about six for Danley and about 3 for 'anything but Funktion One'

Is Tony Andrews good at talking about what sound should sound like, keeping signal chains clean etc and you all agree on that but when it comes to buying his gear then no, don't do that - there's much better and this is pretty much the predominate opinion of all sound guys on various forums online?

Just seems a bit strange to me that's all. Anyway you've got me questioning the decision if that helps.

[Scott Holtzman]

I want to make it very clear I did not plug Void.  I was researching a market I had no knowledge of until you asked your question.  I was fascinated by the aesthetics of the Void, that is all.

I knew Danley before I came to these forums and I the systems I have heard and their resume speaks for themselves.  Sonically you will blow away your competition (based again on Hearsay on the F1 stuff).

I don't want my rambling to be weighted improperly in your decision.
