    My guy! I'm definitely still considering the p16m but that might be an future upgrade once I get the system up and running. One question though on daisy chaining. Presumably I can just run 1 cat5 from the xr18 into the first p16m and then 'thru' to the next and so on and they can have their own dedicated mix? 

    P16m work brilliantly and we all use them. There's a newer updated version being released in January...

    I've got the A4s. I demoed them v UE6's and UE11's before buying. Fit and sound quality are both excellent as you would expect. They have plenty of bottom end headroom but the low end is certainly not overpowering. The learning curve for me has been to lower the volume of my backline and apply a high pass filter to my bass in my IEM's. I'm happy with the results so far but feel that I can improve the sound of my bass in my IEM's with a little more experimenting, rather than any issue with the A4s. 

    I'm interested to know what you think about the UE6 vs UE11. 

     

    I have the UE6 and will need to change someday.

    I second this. It's also a lot easier to manage.  I had a 24-way 25m one, and coililng it back into it's box after a gig was like wrestling a python with a stiffie.

     

    Don't forget you'll need some in the other direction for monitor feeds back to the stage.

    OK thanks I'll get a quote on the drum. 

     

    Yes the one we're looking at has 4 ins for monitors and sub 👍🏻

    What do you mean? Do you need the XR18 somewhere else?

     

    Yes so the XR18 is currently at the back of the stage by the drums in a rack. 

     

    We're wanting a stage snake to run from the XR18 to front stage to tidy up up all the XLRs (there are currently about 9)

    Perhaps think about making a switch to a digital mixer and doing either CAT ethernet cable  to FOH or even wifi to a tablet etc. There are lots of reasonably priced options about now from Soundcraft, A & H, etc... they have the added advantages of each band member being able to manage their own monitor mix and lots of oboard eq, effects, compression etc.

     

    Snakes are big and heavy

     

    Unfortunately our Behringer XR18 isn't capable to extend with CAT5.

     

    I'll probably go with this Lynx box. It has the exact ins/outs we need and is good quality. They offer it on a drum but it's quite a bit more expensive.

  6. I've had my custom UE6's for almost a few years. When the time comes to order new ones (once the fit becomes loose) it seems there two options...

     

    1. Send back to UE for a service and basic adjustment (£350 and they do not offer reshell) 

     

    2. Order a completely new set

     

    Just interested in what others have done in the instance once they stop fitting 😊

    For those of you using Ultranet, where are you getting your gig-proof properly coilable Cat5 cables from?

     

    In the days when I was running a BassPod and Floorboard which are connected by Cat5 I was getting through a cable every other month. I ended up buying a couple of very expensive Van Damme Cat5 leads which were a lot more robust, but even they were never as easy to coil up as a standard mic lead and eventually after a couple of years these failed as well.

     

    I've had this one a few years. Extremely high quality. Infact most of my cables are from Designacable

    Marshall... might have sections of the fake wall for hire... from the looks they are about 6" thick but full height stacks!

     

    Tried Marshall but they won't hire to me unfortunately
