I agree eveything said by soundCritic, but with 1 expection, Rapture Street sound had their x4 15" double warfdale reflex boxes palying BASS!!! ontop of thier scoops!! This made me laugh, but all good fun, I did mention to Chin Hi Powa, if they where launching a rocket!! very impressive set, but way to big for the venue & it did not in my opinion deliver!!, Sir Marcus was the all rounder on the night, could have done with more tops, but all said & done a very good night.
Big up AV Promotion!!

Yeah especially at the end Sir marcus sound was pushing the scoops more, playing about with the kill switches and you heard the venue shaking nice. can't believe there was only 3 small piezo top boxes to cover what looked and seemed like 1850's loaded in humm audio scoops. Nevertheless, it was a good night, and I look forward to the next one.

Some old Jamaican phrases  to sum up sunday:
 
Chin High Power - "Big an wutless" (Gentle giant)
 
Sir Marcus - "Little but talawa" (Not the size of the gun, but the effect from the bullet)
 
Rapture Street - "Lard wooooooi" (F**k**g hell)

Okay sorry, nothing constructive about that, so let me start again
 
Chin High Power needs to get rid of some of their equipment. There is too much processing going on and the sound gets lost along the way.
Also get rid of the 4 x tweeter boxes with the peizos, the bullets and horns in the mid/top boxes should be enough.
Not sure what processor/xover or preamp they were using, but whatever it was needs to be tuned up
 
Sir Marcus just need to get sum compression drivers and horns. They sounded "mellow"
 
Rapture Street need to just scrap the sound, sell all the boxes to a karaoke shop (except for the scoops) and rebuild the sound from scratch.

Were they even scoops? They weren't very deep (size wise) And didn't play sub to well but I could easily be wrong as alot of the bins to my ears were high passed around 110-120hz and so were playing alot of 'kick'. I have a sneaky feeling they were double 18 reflex boxes but please don't all bite my head off at once! like i said I could easily be wrong.
