Location: Vermont | I've been playing in clubs since 1976 as a solo/duo. I plug into a Peavey XR-600F With EV Speakers. They're a great team. Custom Legend,Peavey,EV. I think you're on the right track with your Peavey XR-600C. The newer models have more to offer with both clarity and effects. I would recomment the XR-600G which you can pick up for around $300.00. |

Location: chicago | When Guitarras De Fuego plays out we use our Bose L1,fills an entire room with sound,and the clarity is un believable! Plus I use my alesis reverb w/ my old trusty Ibanez stereo chorus for that rich smooth sound.

Location: Copenhagen Denmark | Yes,with P A quality being so good these days,using P A is the way to go,many of them mixers have usable effects and footswitches to control them,I got a Morley wah inserted at times,will look into a crybaby as well,the Dual Showman had to go,combo 2x12 plus 15" cab.became way too heavy,but it was a humdinger allright,of course, using a small amp as monitor is allways a good idea, BTW,Anyone tried the Helicon Vocal monitor,the one that mounts on a mic.stand ?

Location: Wooster, Ohio | Genz Benz 200 watt Stereo with extention speakers. Closest thing to a Marshall Stack for acoustic players. 150 watt Ashdown Radiator 2. Got that a few months ago cause the Genz stays at church most of the time. Really like the Ashdown, much smaller and kind of retro, lots of dials.

Location: Michigan | I start by plugging into a 12 foot high Marshall Stack. It has a 1000 Watts per channel with a stereo fuzzbuster nutcrackers assbleeders power center with twelve , yes (12) 28 inch power wooffers and (36) 12 inch tweeters that are
pre-amped by a dozen 1960 Fender Twin Reverb amps.That sound system seems to meet my playing needs on Sunday mornings at my church.
The last time I cranked it up ( March 28, 1979 ) past the volume setting 3 for a concert I did in Middletown Pennsyvlvnia the nuclear plant called Three Mile Island had a Meltdown.
If you need any info on a setup like this contact a guy here calling himself Lanaki.Hope that helps . GWB |

Location: Buffalo,NY | I probably should consider using my good PA but I didn't even think about it. I've got a Allen and Heath MixWizard 16:2 with a Quest 3002 amp going to 2 Peavey SP-3G's. So in mono I could push 3000 watts !! But I only use this PA for practice as we always hire a soundman. But i probably should give it a try ??
Regards,
Tom |

Sounds like Nice Equipment doc.,put the speakers on stands,well above earlevel,Nice for the audience ,speakers now unblocked will reach far,and as a bonus,Feedback will hardly occur,easily controlled, of course,a good soundman is allways appreciable :)

How far have U come with the SpeakerCab Project?
Vic :cool: It has really worked out well. I have not gotten a speaker stand yet. The feet would extend larger than my alloted space. :confused: Right now I have the drummer on my left and 2 trumpet players on my right. We just added an electric guitar player. He has so much gear that some changes in our setup will have to be made. I might put the amp on a mic stand which would take up less room but would not be as stable as a speaker stand.
The amp really does have a great sound and enough power. |

Location: Ohio | Fender Acoustasonic 30. Tried a GenzBenz, a Peavey, Fishman, settled on the Fender. Thought for the combination of $/sound/features it won out. Loved the Fishmans, but $$$. Since I was only picking this up for home studio, it helped narrow things down. |

Location: Scotland | Bose showed the new version of the L1 at Frankfurt. Much smaller and lighter power stand with all tone processing from a small satellite unit rather than built into the base unit. This new unit has 4 mic or line inputs and addreses the constant complaint of lack of reverb and effects in the original L1. It´s compatible with channels 3 and 4 of the original model. |

What amps do you use for your acoustic electrics ?
