It's Miami EDM.  Stagehands and Punters are interchangeable.
Go ahead and through "DJ's" into that mix as well.

I love the look of those speakers , no grill and painted. I have to stay with black but I've been thinking of taking the grills off. That way I don't have to try to explain what a horn is to people.Just point up.

A guy urinated (I kid you not) on one of my TH118s because he didn't want to lose his spot by the stage.  Thank God no acoustic foam on the grill...

All I can say is I have two of these and they are fantastic!!!  All science aside...the thrust of the sound is forward so good news when we mix side stage...it's like standing behind a piece of fixed artillery.  That said, at  more normal audio levels they also sound very warm and rounded, with SH60's on top I get the Cheshire Cat smile every time I mix with the system.

Buying TH118's
« Reply #56 on: April 05, 2015, 11:24:02 PM »

I bought 4 used TH118 from a forum member a couple weekends ago. Drove 8hrs (one way) to get them. I finally got to try them yesterday, and compared them to a friend's SB1000's. We both agreed that it would take approx 1.5 SB1000 to keep up to 1 TH118 with the Danley sounding better, fuller, rounder. We somewhat expected this but we're still skeptical until we heard. It's not just hype. They do sound amazing. He just messaged me that his 8 SB1000's are for sale and he's likely replacing them with 4 DBH218. And the little SM80 did keep up with 3 x TH118!!! Mind is still blown. Can't wait for summer festivals to start.

After a couple of hours, we just had to try all 4 subs with 1  SM80. Video starts at 100' and moves back to 300'. Just iPhone mic, but gives you an idea if you listen with good headphones.

Buy 'em Jamin.  I have 4 Th115s, and 3 Th118 (hope to get another this year), and a pair of TH minis.  Amazing. And very portable; I can move them easily by myself.  I do sound for a lot of bands at events (weddings, corporate, parties, etc.).  Typically I use one SRX725 over one (or two) sub per side and it kills.  The system doubles up very easily for bigger shows.  Last weekend I had two SRX over one TH118 per side(for coverage), and truthfully I could not use all the low end I had available in the venue.
 I am never pushing the subs all the way and don't feel like I am missing low end either. 
Hope that helps...

Apparently Ivan or someone else at Danley liked your video. They posted it to Facebook.
