Yup...it IS a CYA thing. I was in retail for 35 years. Many manufacturers prohibit ADVERTISING discounts on their merch. Some even prohibit advertising PRICES. Have you ever seen a price advertised for a Rickenbacker? But...there is a big difference between ADVERTISING and actually GRANTING...

In the RV world, we use 6v golf cart batteries in series to get longer battery life when away from power. Even bigger rigs use combinations or 4 or even 8 of them wired in series-parallel to still end up with 12 volts. They are very heavy, but 2 6v golf cart batteries will give you...

I know Harbinger products are often maligned as bottom of the line junk. I've had a pair of APS12s that we have gigged with weekly for over 2 years and have been exceptionally pleased with. I load in and haul out with a small equipment cart and, yesterday, the cart got caught in a crack in the...

Arcaxis is right. It IS pretty intuitive once you have it in your hand to play with; however, I'm a bit slow and really had to think it thru then draw a diagram to keep with the tester.....especially since I don't have frequent need to test cables. I have only tested XLR, TRS and TS cables...

I've owned several Behringer products and every one has performed exactly as is should. No complaints whatsoever. I'm not a big fan of Behringer documentation, however. IMHO Behringer products enable many musicians with limited budgets to own equipment that would otherwise be out of their reach.

It really sounds like a bad ground. Have you checked/swapped cables?

I agree, contact cleaner will most likely NOT fix the problem.....but if you are going to try it, Deoxit is the absolute best there is!!!

IMHO, any multi-musician band needs some type of monitor. Problem is, in small venues like you describe, monitors loud enough to do you any good are also loud enough to be heard by the audience and either overwhelm your FOH mix OR at least screw it up. Our 3 piece group constantly fought these...

I've been using a TC Helicon Harmony-G for several years and ABSOLUTELY love it. It's now been replaced in the product line by the Harmony-GXT. How natural it sounds is mostly a function of the user's selection of effects and how you place them in your material. We do some songs where I turn...

I think the "flat" ones you see the big name guys use are typically custom molded to fit their ears. If you're looking for nice quality, off the shelf in-ears, however, I can personally recommend Shure SE215. Of course, as Mike said, in-ears are typically wireless, therefore, EXPENSIVE. The...

I've had experience with 2 Pyramid amps. Absolute pure crap. Specs mean ABSOLUTELY nothing.....IMHO

Consider taking your music source to a Guitar Center and audition a Harbinger APS12. It has 2 mic/line unbalanced inputs and 1 line balanced input, each with separate volume controls plus a 5 band graphic equalizer. They weigh a bit more than your 25 lb but are very manageable. If you don't...

We ARE unusual :) Yes, all 3 of us use wired in-ear monitors. We play small venues.....50 to 100 people and we all sit on stools.....no need to move and the in-ear wires are no more inconvenient than guitar and mic cables. In most of our venues, stage monitors loud enough to do us much good...

I have not used that particular unit but I have used both the HA400 and the HA4600. Both performed well.....although the HA400 was easily overdriven and therefore distorted easily, but what do you want for $20. Our band currently uses the HA4600 for in-ear monitors for live shows. It's a...

I had the exact same issue with mine when I first got it. I found the headphone jack to have a strange feel. I thought the plug was fully plugged in but it wasn't. Just be sure it REALLY IS fully seated and I think you'll be fine. The DP-008 is a super little machine. I'm exceptionally...

Yes, I agree, the built-in mics are pretty good. We recently recorded a live show from the audience with the Tascam inside my wife's cloth handbag. The quality was impressive, all things considered. I record our rehearsals with my mixer output (vocals, drum machine, acoustic and mic'ed lead...

Need a bit more info to give you an answer. How high quality do you want the recording to be? Is your guitar acoustic? Does it have electronics or is it electric? When you say you are recording LIVE, does that mean on stage or just sitting around at home? Do you have any mixers, etc? Minus...

Mike, Every Behringer product I've owned has outperformed it's price point .....but......I'd give MF's BOLD statement at the end of their description serious consideration. "Made for less-demanding applications, the B210D still pumps out plenty of pop." Is your application truly "less demanding?"

I found this SUPER little device that's handy-dandy for live shows. It's the SM Nano Patch + SM Pro Audio We are a 3 piece 50-60's R&R and Classic Country group. We set our volume levels with a SPL meter and try very hard not to be TOO LOUD and make sure our vocals don't get buried in the...

I'm a big fan of the TV show "Nashville" and watch to see what brands of instruments and other equipment their characters are using. I was surprised to see a pair of Behringer powered speakers on-stage in a promo scene last night. I'm pretty sure stuff gets there by product placement fees, but...
