Hey

3 way speakers are a real step in the right direction. The sound will be ton's better then keyboard amps. Our own speakers are based on that concept. But we use a very refined crossover designed for keyboards. Commercial versions will leave a bit of tone on the table yet....

Subject: [CWSG] Carvin 3 way speakers for keyboards? need some advice


I'm playing with a Korg cx3 and Studiologic controller with a motif rack. I've been using a Roland kc500, but am not really happy with the sound or the power (150w). I have a Mackie 808 power mixer head and am looking for a speaker to use with it. I like the idea of a 3 way speaker for better clarity of the keyboard sounds, and Carvin seems to be the only company that makes this kind of cabinet (15inch woofer, 6 inch mid, 1 1/2 inch tweeter). Carvin offers a wooden cab (wood is poplar) and a neodymium speaker/plastic cab. Anyone have any experience with this kind of set up or with Carvin speakers specifically.

Thanks for any and all insight,

Steve
