Going to take the plunge


Recommended Posts

My wife and were talking this weekend and she has given me the OK to purchase the MD20 mixer.

 

We are in the process of upgrading our P.A. system with the L2 and L3 speakers.

 

No one has one in stock local. It seems that Guitar Center is no longer stocking the stagesource gear (only special order, not in stock). Do you all have a preferred dealer in the U.S.?

 

Is there anything I should be thinking about before buying this mixer?

I recommend to buy the padded case too- you might have to get it from Line6

I think I got my M20d case from Zzounds; and +1 to that, it's a nice case, perfect fit.

.They also stock the plastic cover - which has come in quite handy..

I bought mine from Sweetwater.

 

I live about 200 miles from the nearest Guitar Center, and the few local dealers (still 20+ miles away) don't stock it.

 

Yes! I also bought mine from Sweetwater - the added two year warranty is 100% totally worth it. Mine started acting weird after the 30 days, but Sweetwater just replaced it for me, and the new one has been flawless. I started with the M20d and a pair of L2t's for my band to use while rehearsing - we mic'd up the drums and everything so we could practice while also doing multi track recording. We're getting near done with our five song EP, so I just added the pair of L3m for when we do gigs this summer!

Ha ha - I forgot about the plastic cover - I have to go see where I stashed it

It actually holds the iPad real nice

I originally bought the line 6 link cables but later on added 110ohm cables from HOSA and they work great and are way cheaper but are not color so I added some green tape to the ends so I know they're link cables

Yeah, the 50' L6 brand Link cable is too expensive. $81 for the 50' length!!! You can get Bestronics to make you one in the USA, using Belden cable, 50' length, far superior cable quality, for a good bit less $$$. Hosa should be high quality too; good price usually! Looks like $25 or so for the Hosa 50'
