Just bought a Fryette LX. Thanks Whizz!

I’m no longer in the gig gang like you JT, but having used this setup now for a couple weeks, I think this would be my live rig. My 18yo self would have loved it, but… poor. AxeFx tap for FoH, LX powering cabs on stage. FC12 command hub up front. Pretty much the perfect setup.

You wouldn't haul the JVM

JVM stays home where I can keep it dust and puke free.

Don't you have kids (or maybe they are past the puke stage)

They know the risk entering the music room…

I've been working with my gear consultant and I think I am going for a single space rack instead. That way I can use it with the III, use it with the FM and use it with whatever else in a modular, non-hernia or meltdown inducing state.

I’ve looked at a very small rack too but think I might use a two spacer. You think there’s enough ventilation in a one space? The amp gets pretty warm.

Yes on the 2 space. Hardest part is it's a deep piece so some 9inch deep rack isn't going to cut it. I'm being goldilocks af about it atm

I'd get one of these, nice handles for easy carrying and the depth is just right:

Oooh I do like this one! It will be a little T-stackish on top of my 112s? Might just grab it and find out \m/

I like the handles of this one better but it's out of stock. I ordered the first one and should be here on Tuesday. We'll see how it looks and go from there. Thank you sir!

I have mine in one of these with a matrix gt1000fx on top for backup but it's a shallower version I think and it has the older thinner handles IIRC

Update. See hyperbolic thread from yesterday or Saturday or whentfever.

LX at home is godlike. LX at the gig was not godlike. Not near loud enough for a 100 watt amp with the FM at least. 2 space rack is fine but it kind of hangs in the balance as well given it's here because I thought the LX would peel paint and it really doesn't. With the FM at least.

I am at a crossroads. I could go Synergy and hope that it somehow operates at a much louder level than the FM does. Or I could dump it and stick with the Stealth. Which isn't loud enough either with the FM.

I am running the output levels at 0 to where it just hits the red threshold but not louder. I could bump it up a few db into the occasional red but that seems like not a good idea. Good amount of $ to be tied up in something.

What's the con of just being the stealth at this point and playing through that?

I've never owned one but this is likely the first time I've ever heard anything from Fryette not being loud enough. I'd contact their support to see if something is amiss.

I think it's a combination of a lot of things and the Fryette not being one of those things. Unless I should have to run the level control on it at 80% to feel like I am getting the goods.

Yeah, I am not sure re: the level but I'd contact them anyway. Maybe there's something wrong, or there's a set up detail you overlooked. Dunno.

They'll help though. Good people.

You still in the return window, JT?

Yeah. I don't mean to be a party-pooper on it either as I really like the idea of it and at home it's devastating in the jam room. But the cheapie in me says "ehhh; not sure I can keep at it if it isn't going to do the trick".
