I've searched on the forum and, as can be imagined, MANY hits are returned. Many threads are specific to 'this' vs. 'that' one. If anyone knows of a thread... similar topic... been answered before... blah, blah, blah; please link me to it. You know the drill; with all due respect, of course.
Context: I'd like to assemble a compact & stereo FRFR rig. There are so many options in FRFR-land right now, that I'm a bit overwhelmed and have also, more importantly, not read anything regarding what people think about their current rigs besides things along the lines of "+1" or "I bought this..." but with little word as to what works for them, what their goals are and what they think now that they've owned the rig for a while.
I'm fine with the rest of the rig. I've got the XL, foot-pedals and what not and am getting close to having everything dialled in my studio. It's nearly time to take this out live.
I'd like to use the rig as personal monitors and, for small gigs, as one would use traditional amplifiers in that the audience would hear it. A stereo line out would go to the sound man in most cases.
I'm not even certain as to whether I should be investigating PA speakers like RCFs, Mackies, etc. or if I should wait for the Friedman (although large & heavy for one guy) and/or investigate similar solutions from Xitone, Atomic et al.
I'd appreciate any insight and opinions as to what is and isn't working for forum members and any thoughts as to what they wish they had known before making a buying decision.
Thanks!
