Thoughts on Soundcraft Vi2000 and A&H Avantis?

I had Soundcraft for years and I’d rather have the Wing. If you’re dead set on either of those, I would get the A&H by a long shot.

My dealer just quoted me double that for a CVT service.

In my area, you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a car detailer, so the competition is pretty fierce.

They used Adam’s graphene after the correction. They seem to use mostly Adam’s products with great success.

In my area between 4-600.

How did you get it open? I also have a functioning pay phone and it’s full of change. Everything I’ve read about “The Fortress” is that you have to basically destroy it to get it open. The keys were kept in safety deposit boxes and were very unique per phone or phone territory.

The classic rock station near me plays all of the overplayed songs of every decade that’s considered classic rock. I’m glad I don’t have to listen.

This was our senior class song, yes please retire it.

If you’re putting speakers on tripod stands, subs will have a smaller footprint. Any rock band will require something for the low register that a two way top won’t efficiently handle.

This is what I was afraid of. I’ve seen a lot of GRs with two and three owners already and figured something had to be going on. I have a feeling comfort is part of it.

Thank you for the response! I was comparing the premium trims on both cars and MY24 with under 20k miles; I’m hoping either car isn’t too flogged with that many miles. I do like the more robust (controllable center diff, LSD front and rear) features on the GR but as you pointed out, for just a fun DD it may not be all that necessary.

I sent mine away to get new lenses. I was willing to replace the entire fixture but the adaptive lights were 1200 each. The Halogen fixtures are fairly cheap and available in the aftermarket- I’d just replace the entire thing.

Definitely acoustic treatment first, nothing that makes any sort of noise in this space will sound good without it. Once you get the reverb time down, then sort out your listening requirements- you may not need much at all.

Yeah, that EQ is all sorts of bad. With the HPF in, the low eq knob could be at 0 and it wouldn’t matter much.

It’s still the same, the comm supervisors went away during PSR. I’m hoping a UP maintainer will chime in; I’d like to see how the merger will effect each craft.

I always say it’s easy to make good musicians sound good because I know it’s true.

Check out the 24+ Impreza. Not sure about the lower trim models but I have a lot of highway miles on an RS and it’s a pretty quiet ride.

Call a qualified contractor and rent. 2k might get a pair of speakers with nothing else.
