I like it and I haven't had any complaints from touring crew. It would definitely benefit from being run active but then that's the case with any passive/active switchable box.

I do have to spend some time as soon as we get a gap in our schedule (currently I have 15 free days left between now and the end of the year) to tweak the crossover point between the W8LM's and the WS218X's. I'm not 100% convinced that the 8" drivers can really handle the 70Hz crossover that Martin specs.

If I had my druthers I would have switched over to the Nexo Geo S12 rig that I wanted last year but unfortunately the budget didn't run to that. So, for now I get along happily with this system Smile

Hey Silas,

Where did you get those rack drawers?




They're Audiopile brand. Only problem with them is they don't stay closed unless you lock them. I have one Middle Atlantic drawer at FOH, and while it's 3 times the $, I'd buy them from now on.

Huh. I have a recently-purchased Audiopile rack drawer with an entirely different handle. It has no problem staying closed, and the latch is very similar to the Middle Atlantic drawer.

And I really don't like those latches...  Sad

Thanks for the reply!

Mine are probably a year or two old now. I got mine back when they were about $30 each. If the new ones are like MA, then I'll be getting some more and selling these.

Here is my little monster. It is currently awaiting a LG FP10K+ which will drive 4 proprietary Dual 18" subs. Nevermind that ADJ p.o.s. on top. It's just killing space. Also a DR480 will be in there soon.

Here are some pics of my rig. Currently, its only for my band so its configured that way. Its not a monster, but, its the first rig I've ever actually owned. I'm proud of it & it sounds good.  Cool  

I'm on ears, & the rest of the band is currently on wedges. However, I've almost got two other members ready to take the iem plunge, but, the bassist is broke so he'll stick with a wedge for now.

Specs:

Yamaha 01V96v2
Digimax FS
Sennheiser EW300IEM G2
Furman PM-8 II
QSC PLX2 1804
EWI 2spc drawer
EWI case
patchpanel & hardwired split
custom power distro with powercons, & quadbox stringers

(not pictured since this is rack porn, not rig porn)
QSC HPR 181i subs
QSC HPR 122i tops
Yamaha ClubV wedges (on the list to purchase next)

I also need to get a few more blank panels to clean up the looks.

Hail to thee, blithe Spirit!
Bird thou never wert
That from Heaven, or near it
Pourest thy full heart
In profuse strains of unpremeditated art
...
Such harmonious madness
From my lips would flow
The world should listen then, as I am listening now!
