Is it cool to have stupid, retardedly, distorted PA doors now? Has our beloved hobby turned into who can make the most noise no matter what it sounds like?

PA doesn't always = bad sounding. Just saying...
you must be new.. PA speakers are old news man
Some times it doesn't matter, if you can get it loud and sound good people will run whatever it is.
I'm talking cheap pa. People around here have never really done this. I get it if you have a 155 sub stage. I'm talking the doors are overrunning everything by a lot
Loud for loud's sake in that case I guess. Somebody brought it up earlier in another thread, the new thing in my area is horns under the hood so errbody can hear the highs. I dunno...Quote:

x2 he either had very crappy mids or had it set up wrong. I'd go with the latter as most people have no idea how to set up xovers/slopes and power them properly.Quote:
