As much as a snob as I am about some things I, quite honestly, don't get too
precious about that end of the signal chain. I think the front end is infinitely more
important.

The player, the guitar, and the tone generator/device ultimately have more impact
on the end result than the speaker and built-in power amp that exists on the back end.

Typical “neutral speakers” usually don’t deliver on stage SPL levels though.

My neutral speakers - no quotes required - definitely deliver "on stage SPL levels" and then some. I've gigged with them for 17+ years.

Although you are welcome to try playing a gig with studio monitors or headphones.

You're missing a key piece. There are definitely neutral speakers that are neither "studio monitors nor headphones," although there certainly are studio monitors that can deliver high SPLs. Your notion of "studio monitors," is apparently lacking, as is your idea of "neutral speakers."

Let us know how that works out for you.

Just fine. Thanks for asking.

Thanks as always a$$hat. You make everything better while adding nothing.

You can just say asshat. Not agreeing with your usage this time, just pointing out you can call someone an asshole, asshat, ass-blaster, cunty-ass, etc.
I do like asshat though.

Yes, agreed. $149 powered speakers are all that’s need to hit stage level volume and accurate sound reproduction.

The TX series won't get to 127, try again. A TS series will

I wonder how many who pretend to be able to hear how awful plastic is would be willing to actually bet 3 or 4 digits on a properly blinded test

Name-calling is the resort of a limited intellect. Try to do better.

I heard that Einstein used to call his colleagues “knob gobblers,” so I’m not so sure about your sentiment.

C’mon man, if you wanna argue with Jay about what a real human personality looks like, sure. Arguing about speakers just makes YOU look like you’re talking out of your butt.

I heard that

Is the way folks preface bullshit rumors that they think support their preferred narrative.

I won't bet on how that would play out, but all the bleating about plastic boxes completely ignores the fact that the best monitors are almost all not in plastic boxes. They're arguing against cheap music store and online vendor crap as if it is representative of everything out there. It isn't.

We spend many thousands on signal processing, consider a tube amp under $1500 to be budget, but anything over $400 on a monitor for stage is getting up into cork sniffing territory.

It’s fun watching you miss the point.

Actually, we know it’s not everything out there. It’s just that so far that’s what Pipeline has mentioned; two shitty plastic box brands.
