Members witesol Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'm outfitting a C rig that stays in a somewhat questionable neighborhood () all summer for about 40 shows. Last year i had put all of my older Yam club wedges, but the club sm15IV didn't quite make it for a drum wedge. I remember those EVs as pretty kickin' cabinets 15 years ago , heavy but nice sounding. There's on in a pawn shop locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoadRanger Posted February 4, 2010 Members Share Posted February 4, 2010 I get to use a couple of the 12" version sometimes - I don't think they go very low but they sure are loud . Even with the 15's you'll need a sub under it to get that modern "rupture my spleen" drummer's monitor thing goin'. I've heard that just about any 2x15 + horn cab works well for this, even a JRX - maybe you can get one of those cheap? I find a 12 + horn cab on a short stand works good for a drummer if he doesn't need drums in it - gets the horn up at ear level just like a 2x15 would . I usually do the same for the keyboard player's monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted February 5, 2010 Members Share Posted February 5, 2010 They are similar to the Yamahas, maybe a bit better on the low end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Unalaska Posted February 5, 2010 Members Share Posted February 5, 2010 1502 would be a fine drum fill. Wouldn't take the most amount of kick but it would still rock HPF'd at 75hz. Try and get a cheap dual 15 though, that'd be better and "look" louder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shaster Posted February 5, 2010 Members Share Posted February 5, 2010 I play at a club that until recently had two EV FM1502 wedges for the drums - one on each side. They did the trick, but I "hear" that the drummers are happier now that the club has switched to the more "standard" top and sub combo. Don't know if that helps any. I hear you about the questionable neighbourhood. The EV might be the right tradeoff as far as sound versus cost of replacement goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
