Inspired
So, I took the plunge and, based on some positive press and reviews that made their way to me, bought one of Electro-Voice's new Live X loudspeakers (the 12"). It arrived today, and has officially been unboxed and lightly broken in. My first impressions of it are very good. It's certainly loud (it's rated at 132db max SPL), and seems warmer and less boomy than the QSC K12 that I previously had. It was also a darn might cheaper than the K12, and has a wooden cabinet, as opposed to the plastic enclosure of the K12. I have only played on it for about 30 minutes, only taking a short break to share my first impressions and share some of the pics I took of the unboxing with you all. It has some cool features, too, like a light-up EV logo (which has an on/off switch), and some kinda neat eq options for the speaker. Overall, the ELX112P cost me just over HALF of what the K12 cost me (new), so I think this could end up being a very very good option for a bang for the buck loudspeaker. I'll continue to update my impressions of the speaker as I use it (I have band rehearsal Sunday morning), and will gladly answer any questions you all may have about it.
