The Gear Page: What goes Boom in the night

The Gear Page.

We've made huge changes to the tools we use to rock your party.

Below are a few setups at different shows. Many were taken about half-way through the setup stage.

3DPreparty, Nov. 2007 Private Party, 75% setup, May 2010 Fundraiser, 75% setup, 8/2006

Usually, this is prior to cleaning up all the cables and moving cases, etc out of sight.

Our Amp racks.

Bottom Rack: Up top, an In/out panel, Pyramid PA-800X for the subs, and a Mackie FR-1400i Power Amp for the PA mains.

Top rack: HP 30 amp PDU & Behringer CX3400 crossover. Barely visible is an in-out panel.

As a matter of fact, there’s roughly 2,200 watts of power amplification installed in the lower rack alone.
We’ve had the Pyramid amp since Day One, and recently added the Mackie.

Our mobile Coffin. We primarily use CDs, and have a laptop-based DJ system to back this up.

A turntable! Typical bedroom deejay setup between gigs, October 2005. From 2003 until mid 2007, we used almost exclusively vinyl to DJ our events. No Serato Scratch Live, Torque, or Final Scratch… Just straight Wax!

Block Rockin' BASS! Bill Fitzmaurice Tuba-18s as of Feb 2010.
The DJ loads these into a Vee shape, or into the corner of the room, and the deep, clean bass is un-mistakable!

Some of our lights... Left: Chauvet ZX-15, American DJ Mighty-Scan, Chauvet ZX-5, Various wash lights can be added/sub’ed as needed.

Ordinary microphones take Panasonic "Sound Pills" and become better sounding than many “Famous Name Brand” stage & studio mics. As many sound engineers know, Electrets Rawk!

Quite a bit of AC Power cables!
Left: 15-amp 120 volt cables. Middle: 30 amp 120/240 cable. Some of ya’ might know this as a generator cord.

Right: several heavy-duty power cables. 20 amp GE turn-lock to quad 5-15s, 30 amp Hubbell twist-lock, L14-30R to 5-15P, and a 14-50P to CS6364.

50A 125/250V AC Power Distros (yes, we can rent one out at a small fee if you need one at a gig/show/worksite. )

*A Colorado state licensed electrician will be hired to perform the tie-in if a non plug-in distro is required.
