But I understand you enthusiasm considering There are those using Logitech Computer speakers for paying gigs. Not even the superior Klipsh ProMedia 2.1 but Logitech..
My God, if a client around here saw someone with a Computer speaker PA, I'm not sure they would allow the act to play a second set.
If I had not read it would have never believed people would use Computer speakers for pro gig. But now I can understand how from that relative standpoint, how those Ebay Speakers can be considered on the same page as the Mackies. I still would love to hear an 8" Driver reproduce 30HZ..Ther goes the Subwoofer business...hell I would love to hear them produce 90HZ. Yeah the Roand Cubw 100 will indeed sound like and EAW/QSC Claire Bros system when compared I'm sure.
I guess one has to adjust the bar to understand the relative view of fidelity around here.
Kingfrog....a computer speaker!!!! what in the world are you talking about?
For someone in the business you sure are not on top of the game...
Some facts for you..The 802 with an 8" speaker has a larger 50 ounce voice coil compared to the 30 ounce on the Mackie 350, and the 802 has a inch and 3/4 HF driver compared to the Mackie's inch and a 1/4..
And to correct another of your in accurate statements..Th Mackie 350 is 165 watts for woofer and 30 watts for HF driver,,a total of biamped ..195 watts....The 802 is 200 watts...Mackie loses in a lot of comparisons...I would suggest you try something before condemning a product that you have zero info ....
I mentioned a long time ago, I liked Mackie..so I am not slamming them...but I am illustrating by comparison what these guys can do...including kicking Mackies butt...
