I put the pictures in the wrong box, so it only put in the one I didn't want.
All fixed now.

Hi Randy,

the M1225 wedge is one 12" LF driver, and one 1.4" exit neodymium driver, with a 2.5" voice coil.

They're great wedges, and as I put in another thread, I did a mid-level national band here with them, and only had to take about 3db out of 4 frequecies on their wedges.  

There's a few reviews of them over in the other thread in Road Test.

The part of the show where I could actually walk away from the mixer was exactly when the downpour started.
I can however relate what happened during sound check on Monday night.

I had the system set up as pictured (minus the sub) on the edge of the infield of a regulation softball field.
I was going through my pre-show playlist and pushing it more with each song, absolutely no distortion with the first red light on the  U103's.

Anyway, I had Nickelback's RockStar on while I was walking to the outside edges of the field.
All of a sudden I hear a kid at the pool (100 yards from me easily) screaming "turn it up!!"

Considering that the past systems for this gig could barely reach back 100ft let alone the other side of the park I think that in itself says something.
These are cleanest powered speakers i've heard ever heard.

The fact that there are no buttons is great, especially when the hands are untrained volunteers.

I  also tried aux fed subs for the first time with this rig, the difference is amazing.

P.S. rain has no negative effects on the mains or the sub.( I pulled the monitors only because they were face up and I don't have a house to mortgage should I make them explode Laughing )

That kid at the pool does not have very sensitive hearing(as I first thought).
I walked during intermission last night and found clean intelligible sound all the way to the other side of the park(about 150 yards), I would have kept going if it weren't for the fence blocking me from crossing the street.
I was quite astounded that these "little" boxes sounded so huge so far away.
If only I had a house to mortgage, the garage would be full of these.
