We have a few Halloween parties and rentals coming up over the next week. When digging out our 15 year old Chauvet and Eliminator fog machines they were dead. Just got some Mister Kool IIs in. I realize to an extent waterbased fog juice and proplyene glycol is what it is regardless of...

I used PayPal to pay them - if it doesn't come I'll dispute the charge.

...When the crossfaders work. :) Sorry - I had to...

I've actually thought about opening up a suicide company under a different name and just staffing it with warm bodies for this type of stuff so I can still profit off it as I teach the market a valuable lesson... If some of my competitors notorious for rookie subcontractors and bait and switch...

Noone from PSSL has been replying - even before they shut their doors. I actually wanted the Gigbar Move 2 weeks ago when they had it on sale for $600 something - tried calling since I wanted to expedite shipping and add in a few Mr. Kool IIs, no luck. Worked out better for me though - while I...

Just got the email for their going out of business sale. A lot of stuff looks like your typical liquidator got a hold of it - marked back up then 30% off, however, I did just pick up a Chauvet Gigbar Move for $560 out the door.

Are you doing anything extra to shield the or amplify line running to the ethercon? I realize many ethernet cables are already shielded but normally I see them used with some sort of DI or step-up/step down unit.

Speaking of which I have a greaaaat set of festival speakers described in another thread I'm willing to part with to get some money for some etx-35s... They *mostly* work...

Cross faders and sliders are usually user serviceable and from what I recall only cost around $20 a piece. You could take a stab at opening it up and swapping these or at least buy the parts and have them on hand for the repair guy if you want to save some cash.

Alright...so...mini rant here along with a problem to solve... With festivals in October some of my older passive/19" rack mounted gear has been going out. I've to realize I miss these systems terribly. It takes me under ten minutes (sometimes about 5) to put it up and tear it down with the...

A new barn venue owner actually approached me as they were "integrating" a dj booth into their design so they can supply all the sound, equipment etc. with their packages. When asking to partner with us so someone could just "show up and run it" - after giving them my rate I never heard from...

PS - Thanks for the welcome back everyone. I will try to get some pictures of the rig up soon (although this setup is not representative of what we normally send out)

So I had some weddings cancel this last weekend and ended up running the speakers personally at a festival. So the entire thing was being run on a completely different rack than any used to-date. One speaker sounded fine. The other sounded scratchy - moreso scratchy through the horn (rx22)...

Yes - I did test the amps with other speakers which is how I was able to rule the CE1000 as part of the issue (I'm actually running 4 of these speakers). I'm guessing it may be the voice coils. What is the proper procedure to check them? I did notice the impedance was slightly off but chalked...
