    EAW has unveiled the new SB1001 large-format dual-18-inch-loaded subwoofer, essentially a SB1002 large-format flyable sub without the rigging hardware. While the dimensions of the SB1001 vented enclosure and the fundamental acoustical philosophy remain true to the SB1000, the core components are significantly enhanced to include larger 4.5-inch (115-mm) voice coils, 20 percent higher BI, and all-neodymium magnet structures.

The speakers hang in a cluster near the front and there’s a sound booth in the back. Down the hallway are the nursery and the church office. While that describes the majority of churches, a growing number of churches are forming that don’t fit that description at all. Churches that do not own a building are… View this post

    Co-headliners Three Days Grace (“3DG”) and Breaking Benjamin are back on tour, with Chris Zakoor as FOH engineer for 3DG. Said Zakoor, the tour wouldn’t feel right if he weren’t mixing in front of a Meyer Sound MILO line arrays. “There’s been nothing but positive vibes using Meyer since we started back in 2007,” Zakoor says. “Both MILO and MICA are powerful, great-sounding rock boxes with lots of headroom for vocals—and plenty of edge if you want it.” The system… View this post
