Still got a Sony C-74 here. One day I'll find a use for it. Maybe as an
audience mic for in-ears.

Cancelling doesn't work on individual.net AFAIK.

Which shows the level you are working at more than anything.

Mike, do you honestly think that anyone here thinks you have a clue? You are
not qualified to make statements like the ones above because you know little
or nothing about live sound. It seems you are just making random statements
and hoping people are fooled in to thinking you know anything at all. Please
keep your posting to the god-bothering newsgroups.

I had a bunch of young kids rent speakers, they stole an EV 1823M driver. Did
they think we might not notice ?

PUNK band ! Luckily I knew their 'mananger' or there's no way they'd have got
the kit in the first place. He paid for the replacement personally.

Never had anyone blow a driver though, except me once ! Some RCF voice coils
weren't quite up to the finishing finale.
