Hey Tim,
We have 8 of the MCW-2, and can't I say enough good things about them and the built quality etc.We Plan to order X115, X215 and B36X in the very near future. I'll post more details at the end of the season.
IMHO, bang for the buck - Can not be beat.
Mike

I'm using them with great results so far. I just did a small club gig with them. That zomax 2" is amazing. Which horn flare are you using zomax or viking audio? Like Lefty said they are great for the money. I've been getting compliment on the sound.

Good stuff, especially for the money. Anyone considering Yorky Elite's or JBL SRX's should look into these.
Too bad you already have the 2225's. You could have saved a few bucks by buying the Zomax 15". Only $100 each though audiopile.net.
Lefty, are those LAB subs underneath yours? Wow.

the Empty cab runs about 800.00 per. last time i looked. about a yr ago. then they have to be shipped from Mexico. you can get them loaded or unloaded. I know of a US distributor if your interested email me, and i can get you more definate prices. if you want them loaded let me know, n i ll get you the price of that. they are designed around the JBL drivers, but can basically be loaded with most any driver, but some work better than other obviously.

I had them delivered with the Zomax 15s. going to do a side by side comparison between the Zomax and the JBLs( which i picked up off of ebay or 1/2 a song!!! YEA ME)with smaart. will post results when i get that done.
Due to a funky Behringer X-over, i blew one of the Zomax 15s. first one Mark had heard of... have the recone kit for it, just have to find the time to get it to the Reconer in few cities down. but personally, i did not hear very much difference, if any, in the Zomax compared to the JBL.... but smaart will tell all. hopefully i ll have that done by the end of May ( 2005, by how much i have going on..lolol)this yr... keep up the posts, i d like to hear more from other users.

I believe I origionally loaded Tim's X-215's with Zomax 2226's , but I think Tim liked the sound of the JBL's better. Seems like Tim "fell into" a bunch of JBL's... I can't remember the details... it's been awhile.
