The only negative thing I can think of is that they lack air filters behind the grilles so after a summer of events they become quite dusty inside. Routine maintenance should include taking the lids off and cleaning them every so often.
Zeer licht in gewicht en dan toch zat vermogen, heel blij mee en de DSP werkt ook zeer fijn en duidelijk.
Scheelt enorm veel sjouw werk.
Dankzij de goede limiters ook heerlijk te gebruiken als floor monitorversterker.
en is er software voor apple om deze versterker te gebruiken, zo ja waar kan ik deze vinden ?
Bedankt.
