Dave, you forgot my notorious "IMO" in your quote of my quote.



The reason I removed my email address from my SZ Profile was I was getting annoying SPAM from troll's who have nothing better to do than to deviously fill my Inbox with muck and mire. Not that I regard your flame as such UD. PS: You can find my email address if you look for it btw. Home is where the heart is I always say. Hint hint...

Although I have not heard the EV SxA360's I have read about them from people who do own them. They don't get the rave reviews I expected from such an expensive speaker[s]. They do weigh less than the Mackies which is a big bonus but for the $$$ savings alone I (as in Me) would go for the Mackies. Everywhere I (as in Me) look, it seems the Mackie SRM450's are the big ticket item. Bands love them for their great sound and 'affordability'.

I have honestly never seen a Band using the ElectroVoice SxA360's btw. One reason being it would seem is they are overly priced and hard to find and another reason may be (possibly the biggest reason of all) is that they don't offer any advantage sonically over the very popular SRM450's??

GC used to carry EV. They no longer do. GC also used to carry Kurzweil. They no longer do. >> Do I see a trend here? Btw, if you didn't know, Kurzweil was bought out by Young Chang, makers of less than stellar (cheap lower end) Pianos. Young Chang recently filed for bankruptcy protection. Both may be goners.

Best regards,
Mike
