hookie Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 ...cash at Sweetwater for a XK3c, expression pedal, (2) K10's, another kb stand, various cables and other stuff. Now the wait - should get it later this week. I was thinking about the K10's, K12's and many other of the 'better' alternatives out there. My guy at Sweetwater 'guaranteed' me I'd love the K10's over my JBL G2 Eons. I was still skeptical, so he said he was so sure that he'd eat the return shipping if I didn't like them and wanted to return them. We'll see if the K10's live up to all the hype... I know I'll like the XK3c because I play one at church, but the K10's?? I'm still skeptical. I'll let you know what I think of them when compared directly with the EONS at home and at gigs. Aah...temporary GAS relief! Yamaha C2, Yamaha MODX7, Hammond SK1, Hammond XK-5 Heritage Pro System, Korg Kronos 2 61, Yamaha CP4, Kurzweil PC4-7, Nord Stage 3 73, Nord Wave 2, QSC 8.2, Motion Sound KP 210S, Key Largo, etc…yeah I have too much… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedKey Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Never tried the Eons. I went from a pair of Mackie 350's, to a Traynor K4, to a pair of JBL PRX512's (returned quickly due to that noise gate issue cutting off sustained notes), to a pair of QSC K10's. I'm finally completely satisfied with my sound. They are fantastic and I hope you have the same experience. Get the bags too. Congrats on the new toys!

KeyMoe Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Congrats! on the XK3c, I love mine!! Also, I ended up returning the K8s and staying with the EVs. K8s seemed stressed under higher volume. Hopefully the K10s will serve you well.....

Joe Muscara Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Sounds like fun, and cool of the Sweetwater rep to give you that "guarantee." Let us know what you think of the K10s, I'm especially curious how they compare to the EONs. "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

timwat Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I, for one, appreciate your participation in stimulating the economy. Congrats on the purchase, let us know how the unpacking and first sound check goes. And we always appreciate shiny photos of new gear getting uncrated. ..

Joe Muscara Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 BTW, why did you specifically pick the K10s, and are your EONs 10s or 15s? "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

frogmonkey Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 That is an awesome purchase, right there! Sweetwater seems to be trying really hard these days. They have been calling to check on every order, and offering free "tech support". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
