Some Fractal rigs from my summer live gigs
Thanks for sharing the pictures Marco. I got a chuckle out of your face by the Fm 9 on stage.
it is a special venue in the historical place
PowerCon?
Yup.
Indeed, thanks, found with that term. Just for culture : what particular interest vs standard Schuko connectors?
Now I had to search
Yes. Mainly "very secure." If someone trips over a power cord, it won't kill the show. And if you're flying line arrays fifty feet in the air, the last thing you want is to have a power cord fall out.
I see, actually never ever had a spontaneous disconnection from a Schuko power connector except that pulling them out can be a PITA when they are not readily accessible vs simple a twist and pull operation of this speakers nsbut that ain't the question. I just never came across that type of power connector and now I now what it is. Maybe a tiny bit more sensible to contact issues and consequential heating phenomena?
PowerCON connectors are much less susceptible to contact issues caused by the plug getting kicked or pulled halfway out of the socket.
Both never happened for me but I guess it's like everything if you buy cheapo electrical materials you have that kind of accidents. I had bad speakon connectors mount on a mid range set of Thomann speaker cables and the plastic just dried up and the connector felt apart someday. I replaced with professional speakons and never again had any issue afterwards with these.
You're a lucky man.
Tripping over, sure, who never tripped over a cable some day haha? I did at least 20 times mostly guitar cable as all the rest is systematically taped to the floor. It's a constant war. To start with I probably should go wireless, have some old nady lying around here but the hassle with batteries makes I use it maybe once every 5 years.You're a lucky man.
Over the years, I've seen many instances of power cord getting tripped over our sagging out of the socket from to much why on the cable.
