    I got molded plastic PA cabinets, I installed commercial movie cinema woofers & tweeters into the cabinets, I get tons of positive feedback regarding quality of sound, (great for weddings). My PA system can be turned up loud, but won't damage peoples hearing.

    Hello sir love your reviews brother. I get mixed info on Mic/Line switch.
    Is the switch supposed to be UP for line?
    Your help would be appreciated.

      For me, I'd choose the J8 over the EV 50. I think they're really close though

    Looks good man. I'm all wash and uplighting now except for one derby with the single mini kinta...I just really like how they look on fast songs. Good call on the venue AV staff...their cable management needs attention. I did a site visit before at a huge destination event I had and it was super helpful. It was a big room and they just confirmed what I planned to bring would work, which it did. Did anybody jump in the fountain?

    • @AaronStrawn
      @AaronStrawn  2 года назад

      I don't look at numbers, more application. I've used these for pretty big rooms and up to 250 people. Some will think that's not true....but it is lol. They deliver for the dance and can cover for dinner/speeches. I take either my S1 Pro or the new JBL Eon MK2 for back room fill if I need it

    Awesome gig log, always enjoy the content! Quick question about the Salsa booth: I have been thinking of getting this but hesitant thinking that I need backdrops and props. I like that you just bring it as it is. Do you get a lot of demands for props or backdrops?

    • @AaronStrawn
      @AaronStrawn  2 года назад +2

      I decided against backdrops cause I wanted to put it close to the dance floor (my opinion, the best place for it). Plus, it keeps the cost down to my clients. They ask if I have one, but it's never been a deterrent. Some make their own and bring their own props

    Hey Aaron, starting out and I keep going in loops about what speakers to get. Is it worth it to stay budget and get the EV ZLX15s or shud I save and rent until I can get these RCF Column Speakers?

    • @AaronStrawn
      @AaronStrawn  2 года назад +1

      Whatever you do, buy in cash. Don’t get suckered into a 0 down monthly payment bullshit.
      For me, I love the look of the columns. I’m not a fan of a top on a tripod so that was the big factor for me. You gotta do what feels best for you and makes you the happiest bro. Hope that helps!

    Aaron... Props from Berlin, Germany! Really love your videos. I just said to my wife, that you're probably my favorite DJ related RUclips Channel, period! Because of you, I bought the RCF EVOX J8. After 2 deliveries with transit damage, the last 2 are just fine! I was wondering... Are you using the supplied bags for the speaker poles? They seem a little flimsy. Any suggestions? Keep up the great work!

    @RobAlberti 2 года назад

    Our contract stipulates that WE ARE ONLY LIGHTING VENDOR - mixing in-house lighting and your own lights are always a challenge. Managing the entire event lighting guarantees that you have control over the quality. If there were issues with in-house lights, everyone thinks IT'S YOUR FAULT. Same goes for in-house audio. We would have politely declined audio for dining space and done it ourselves to guarantee quality. Easily could have used Shure Wireless packs and more array speakers in that space for better coverage.
