Electro-Voice EKX-12P

I've always been a "Speakers with a rack full of Amps" guy so when I started playing again with my newly formed band, I was told to take a look at the new generation of Powered Speakers. I was VERY skeptical at first because I just didn't think they'd have the same "umph" that a rack full of amps will give you. So I went and make up my mind and bought a pair of EKX-12ps along with a pair of EKX-15sps and figured, worse case I'll just return them if they don't work for me. First the setup was SO easy. Powered them up and configured the built in DSP. They have an easy to read LED display on the back. They first ask if you are on a pole or array etc. Then what type music you will be playing. DJ, Live, Public Speaker etc. Then they ask what you have them paired with. In my case I dialed in the EKX15sps. Done, no setting crossovers or drive racks or patching cables, simple. Then I knew it was going to be a good night and it was! Im in love again!!
