Hello all I've had my Helix about a month now, I absolutely love it. I was a little scared by some of the negatives I heard in heard during the month I waited for delivery. It has however be flawless so far and I feel like I'm playing my guitar through an amp again. Great work all of you Line 6 folks and Thanks!! I wanted to use my Helix for a while before jumping in and purchasing a monitoring rig, I am reaching that point :) So I have a couple of questions, I've pretty much narrowed it down to 2 or 3 choices Line L2M Mackie DLM8 dB FM10 I want to be able to monitor in stereo, I would also like to be able to get a feed from my monitor guy to fill in the rest of my mix. For what ever reason I'm not crazy about the L6 L2T, my main question (finally) if I plug my Helix into a pair of L2M's is the analog/Line in still active? A second question is, do the L2M's mirror nicely, I've never seen a layout of speaker placement, (it would be nice to have the HF drivers on the outside of each box, and sit on the deck evenly) It looks like the boxes have 30/60 degree kickback so it seems the wouldn't with the HF drivers on the outside... so how do they sound in stereo ? Any other thoughts on the boxes listed above? I like the idea of the DLM8, but something in me is hesitant (and they are over priced) As a reference, I currently monitor through a pair of Roland cube 30's going into the aux in (straight to the power amp) Thanks for taking the time to read this I lok forward to all your comments
