RE: [DTXpress] Re: Amps n' such...

2004-05-26 by Glen D. Earl

I'm trying to get specifically to DAZ or any one who uses the Behringer
KX1200 Keyboard monitor.  I just purchased a KX1200 today, online, and
it will probably be here before the end of the week.  My question is,
however, give me an idea of which channel you are connecting your
DTXPRESS III set to and what you're setting some of your settings on the
KX1200 for the best sound with your DTXPRESS III set, will you please?  
 
Thanks,
Glen

  During an earlier discussion on this subject, I was one of the few 
people who advocated using a bass amp. I think it was a 300 watt 
Mcgregor amp with a 2x15 cab. It was a monster, when you start going 
round the kit and giving it a bit of stick (and pedal), you could 
feel the room shake. However after reading a few reports from here, 
I opted to change for the behringer kx1200. The first thing I 
noticed was the cymbals came to life, the difference in sound 
quality was amazing. There are also four seperate inputs, so anyone 
can just turn up with their guitar, plug in and off you go.
  As if all that wasnt good enough, I managed to pick up the kx1200 
for 210 gbp delivered, and sold the old one for 250.
  One word of warning though, after searching for reviews of the 
kx1200 I did find quite a few who complained about build quality and 
even the terrible state they arrived in due to poor packaging. 
  I can only say that the one I have arrived in pristine condition 
and sounds excellent.

I hope this is of some help to you.

Daz
