Thanks for the post, Scott L. I'm getting offers to sell my JBL plus gig bag for $375 off Ebay. This is about $175 less than I am paying for the Motion Sound plus gig bag.
Scott, I play a lot of small places, and two 26lb. (I think they weigh 26lbs) speakers would be very bulky and would add significant amount of time to my setup time. Besides, two JBLs wouldn't fit in my trunk along with my keyboard and stand.
So I was looking for a one piece solution to getting stereo.
I perform principally for elderly people who are consumed with fear of being blasted by loud music. Just the idea of coming into a small room with two JBL Eons I would think would scare a lot of folks- kind of like coming in with an electric guitar and a Marshall stack.
I have decided to try out the amp stand, but that is a flimsy afterthought as compared to actually having another speaker.
It would be good to have more powerful gear for the large outdoor gigs and auditorium gigs I do. But I can literally count on three fingers the gigs that I do where I couldn't get by with the KP-100S and a subwoofer. In those cases, it costs me $18 to rent two 100 watt Yorkfield amps at my local music store (just a mile away). I only have one job on my calendar where I'm contemplating doing this.
This is my reasoning, maybe it's faulty, maybe not. Thanks again Scott.
