I wish I'd taken photo's now as this is going to be a nightmare to describe - but I've just visited a club where they've got two "state of the art" sound systems:

1. BIG stack of speakers, two bass bins, 1 mid, 1 high. All very purple and with a weird little horn pattern down the middle of the bass bins.

2. Even weirder - the subs in the back room looked like empty boxes with horns in and the mid/high were horns mounted on a pole up above - imagine something out of Dr Seuss and you'll be pretty close to the mark.

There's something on their website about "DIRT?" Anyone have a clue what these are? I'm seriously going to have to take some photos!

Nope - this was more purple :) And weirder.

Just a hunch.

Oh yeah - there we go. In one room we had a pair of these:
6859

With a pair of these (without the grill):
6860

And a pair of these (without the grill):
6861

And this was the bass bin from the main room (x4 in use!)
6862

Lovely :) I'll have to get a photo when I go back - it's really something to see.

The bottom one is a Void Stasys and I've seen the horns before too, but not the middle ones.

The middle pic is Void Paraflex.... they don't half move some air and close up produce some of the rudest and dirtiest LF you'll ever get to hear.

I know, that's where I got the photos from :) I'd never seen them before and they kick some serious LF. A Max SPL of 141db!?! I did say the rig in one of the rooms was made up from Purple cabs (the Stasys series) and the one in the second room was made up from some odd Horn shaped things (not purple).

Not any more. :(

I believe his dad has a couple of pairs of the Viper Cabs (4 top2 and 4 bottoms) I think but not 100%


Stysys X....pah..............it's all about the Psyco these days. One cab has one 18" with 1500 watts RMS going in to it. :D:D:D

1x Cab = 141db peak and 136db continuous
4x Cabs = 152db peak and 147db continuous

Holy :Censored: ! It's going to be interesting playing there in a couple of weeks time (fingers crossed).

Don;t know if I have confused you there but those stats were for the Psyco cab.


Stats for the Stats X cabs are as follow:

1x Cab = 142db peak and 138 continuous

Not sure what how many 4 cabs would be but at a guess (on the driver really) it could be either 144db for 4 cabs using 3db but it could be 150db for 4 cabs using 6db (all depends on the driver's SD I believe it is)


Nothing more technical, I promise. lol.

There's a link to the Psyco, as it's not openly advertised as a production box on the Void site.

And for some bedtime reading on the subject...

The word from the Master being "Its not the kind of bin you ask for, want or can have. Its the kind of bin that finds you when your ready." Marketing at it's finest.

I knew what you were talking about - my comment stands (with the StaSys cabs producing almost the same kind of peak SPL's) :D

Absolutely incredible. That's all I'll say.
