As far as it not being capable of being used as a monitor - I think you would have to be at nosebleed level to not hear one of these or just have poor hearing. It's fine to speculate, but to make absolute judgements on pieces of gear you've never used and based solely on specs isn't helpful to others that want the real scoop on these pieces of gear. They are far more capable than they seem on paper and there's a reason that they are dominant in the busking world.

Whatever dude, talk about speculating... your post just lost any credibility when you said I must be deaf of hearing when I provided an actual example where 10-20 watts isn’t enough from a real gig. Clearly you’ve never played a gig in a small distillery with a rowdy & loud packed house. This is why professionals have used actual wedge monitors forever on stage and not Cube Streets

I have played over 200 gigs in retirement homes, breweries, restaurants, parties and festivals. I have used monitors as small as 7-50 watts and it's always been enough. Everything from a pair of JBL 1000 watt speakers to a Roland Street Cube EX. Outdoor festivals are another matter where the venue has multiple wedges on stage. You are stating facts about gear you have never used, but I have. The speculation is all on your part. You can chose to argue and lash out, or you can learn - that's up to you. Have a good one.

jpino is definitely right on this. Just listened to roylor's recordings and he's definitely an amateur in music. Don't need to start drama here if your music skills are far from professional.

Used to play Blues harp in a band that played at nosebleed levels. Guitar player w/a 130 watt music ma and a drummer that played like animal from the Muppets. If those are the kind of gigs you play, then yes, you need loud & multiple wedges. This is the Acoustic amplification section isn't it? You need multiple floor wedges for acoustic performing? Pure BS. Not starting drama either. Jpino chimed in with the adversarial tone, as have you. Those that yell the loudest about being pro's rarely are and most don't even have the balls to play live. You may find my skill amateurish, and perhaps it is - but it was enough to play nearly 100 gigs in 2019 and get paid doing it. Monitor use is as much about proximity, speaker size and efficiency and dispersion as wattage.

I'll chime in here..
Skip the "AA" battery thing.. and it's a known fact that these don't sound the best put up against other Battery amps the cost around the same. Roland has its own sound..you either love it or hate it... For battery-powered I would go with EAE, Bose, JBL, Mackie in that order... Whether someone is a Pro or not...Has nothing to do with how they sound to us... It's his customers and repeat calls....or how much he is working with word of mouth. And his/hers Entertaining ability....Keep the customers happy and you keep gigging... Honestly, this has more to do with it than an unapproachable Pro who can't be bothered. Have fun and keep the customer's attention and your a hit.. |
