When will you uneducated idiots realise that if you put 100k of any proper pro system likw Nexo Alpha, Martin W8, or GAE Director etc etc, in a venue that it would completely piss all over that Valve thing. Valve is homemade rubbish. Please believe me. There is so much of it. That is why it is so loud. Get a grip of yourselves.

It's not the output, it's the frequency..
I've seen valve in action a few times, its not about the "loudness" as such, it's more a feeling

I think that's well funny! Chill man I have worked it out the valve people do it for the love of it. Which is cool!The reason everyone loves the valve is because to the untrained ear it's very impressive because its probably pushing 140db! They must take the whole rig to every venue! Obviously pro PA rental companies would not do this for finance reasons! but lets just say We Took our entire south-east hire stock of GAE Director www.audioenergy.co.uk to say a medium sized venue such as the Coronet @ Elephant&Castle I Think people may die!!!!!!!!!!

With respect it sounds as if you are commenting on a genre of music you dont fully understand. its not the sheer volume or loudness that these valve sounds aspire to, its the unique feel that is gained from running valves. go and check the reggae sound system of Jah Shaka, your body is literally moving with the warmth of the bass while you can still talk clearly with the person next to you- quality. fed up with getting my ears damaged by too loud, poor quality in house club rigs. highnessroots.co.uk, roots rules

| Sound Engineers take on Valve |

The systems you're talking about are built for a totally different purpose than pro pa systems, which are designed to produce exactly what you send them. 100K (or even 50k) of nexo would blow the pants off the valve system in terms of level and the clarity would be incredible, but thats why it about £6k a box. It's horses for courses, your system warms up the bass, which is what you want. Ive heard big old school reggae type systems and they can be awesome!
I'm a sound engineer (as well as a drumnbass head) and i think the valve sytem is great for what it's for, but no way in hell would i want to mix a band on it. Give me V-dos any day!

When I started out dj ing in the late 60s I used a couple of vortexion valve amps and some home made speakers using fane 18 , 15, 12 , 8 drivers in a odd looking asortment off black boxes . Having over the years used all sorts of top end pa s jbl nexo ect. in clubs and outside venues I can honestly say valves of any kind are the ultimate in giving emotion to your performance at the end of the day thats the hardest thing to create not sterile clear none involving sound
all music is noise but not all noise is music . keep the faith brothers and may the source be with you , p.s fatman have a great dj valve mixer check it out .
