Also probably worth putting this up too GF - PB S: 12,5 kg, 27,6 lbs PB M: 16,5 kg,36,4 lbs PB L: 19,5 kg, 43,0 lbs P&D comes in at 13kg... but then then theres the amp on top... 5.9kg / 9.5kg / 3.4kg depending upon which of the P&D amps... vs 1.45kg for the amp. Im guessing that you could in theory use any old amp with the PB but I would be wary of what I would plug into the P&D one considering it has 150w handling vs 600w @ 8ohm of the tecamp. As you can see, this all makes for an interesting shootout. BGM are you reading this?

The Tecamp certainly looks very favourable in that department.

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' timestamp='1425908470' post='2712035'] Not a worry for me - I am as visually boring as John Deacon!! Out of interest what does the Tecamp Please Board cost? [/quote] Depends upon the size - they do three sizes. From memory, the largest board with the pleasure pump(!) amp is circa 800 quid.

[quote name='Gunsfreddy2003' timestamp='1425883066' post='2711702'] I did really like the Porter and Davies product and feel that would really enhance my gig enjoyment but not sure that I could stump up £1k easily for that pleasure. [/quote] I was gutted I wasn't well enough to come to the show as this is the product I was interested in. I'd like to know how it compares to the tecamp pleasure board. I know that p&d have been pushing this - but it's not new tech - but maybe they've taken it somewhere over and above the pleasure board. Of course, the big downside of this type of monitoring system is that it kinda cements you to the spot - which can be a little visually boring.

[quote name='Westie9' timestamp='1425824738' post='2711072'] I can't make it but can anyone tell me if the folks that make the ear moulds are there and the name of the company at all please? I spoke with them last year about getting a pair made but completely forgot the name of the company.... Anyone able to help? [/quote] Paul @ http://www.custom-inearmonitors.co.uk

[quote name='skelf' timestamp='1425766220' post='2710581'] Excellent time today. Thanks to everyone that dropped by. Found the volume at my end of the hall to be pretty good I think the volume was higher at the other end according to people I spoke to. Place was really busy despite the negative comments which was very encouraging for tomorrow and future shows. [/quote] Good stuff - I always think that the exhibitors are in a win or lose situation depending upon their placement. Sounds like you bagged a good spot if the volume was low!

Not much sympathy, I am afraid. [/quote] Post curry porcelain appointment...
