Good video man! I have the Maui 28 G3s as well, and this video is really useful to me because i'm a hopeless messy. I'd like, if it is possible, to ask you some questions: during your events, How do you gain stage? I mean, how do you set your trim, master on the mixer and main, sub on the maui 28? How do you deal with the freaking limit light that seems to kick in too early with respect to the maximum headroom this speaker can produce? thank you in advance for you answers and keep up the great work!
Thank you! Glad it could help. I'd like to make another video about gain staging but generally I keep the main and sub knobs at 12 or 3 depending on how loud I need it. I've went to max once at an outdoor event. I live with the limit light, it's ok for it to light up off and on. It's not a limit for clipping but just means the digital limiter plug-in they have built in is in use. The red protect light means you are almost for sure clipping. I usually run my mixer as hot as possible during gain staging so I'm not tempted to creep the volume up louder than intended and run into the protect light. I would see my mixer running red well before the protect light comes on. Hope that helps!
Hello, I have the same system, but don't think that it can handle 150 people, yes, if those people sit quietly at the table and serve their food and drink, it can handle it, but at a party, people dance, shout, etc. when you have 40-50 people in the ring of dancing in front of the system, the sound starts to become a problem, especially on the bass side, separately I purchased a turbosound milan m15b subwoofer that works simultaneously with the LD system in order not to force the subwoofers of the LD system (I did not convert the LD system into satellites) and can cover about 70-80 people max on the dance floor, without this subwoofer I have to keep the volume of the ld subwoofers at +2 in front of the columns (12 o'clock the columns, 2 o'clock the subwoofers ld subwoofers) so that they can be heard well on the low side, now I the volume from the columns and subwoofers ld at 12 o'clock and the potentiometer at Turbosound also at 12 o'clock and I can cope with low frequency music (hip-hop techno-trance) max 80 people in the ring,,,!
Yo man I’m thinking of getting these to cover most of my events!! I’d love to hear your experience. How many guests do you feel like you can cover? How often if at all, do you feel like you need a bigger system for the events you do?
Yea man thanks for asking, I should do a video going over them in depth. I'd say 150 is pretty reasonable as a limit. Maybe a bit more or less depending on the space. Pretty much any indoor space they have been awesome even up to 5000 square feet. Outside gigs in wider areas are where they kinda fall off I'd say.
@@letitdropent You should definitely make a video review on them! I’m sure a lot of other people would be interested in hearing your experience as well. Oo that’s pretty good man I appreciate it. That’s pretty good for most events that Id do and pretty impressive!

@@ionitarazvan8320 thanks for sharing your experience! that’s great to know as well! At the price, are you still glad you purchased them? Or were you expecting more?
@ionitarazvan8320 oh ok that's when the bose l1 pro 32 sub 2 or the bose l1 pro 16 come in at. 1 pro 16 can do bout 100 or 150 by itself a pair can do 250 to 300. The pro 32 with sub 2 can do even more easily. But these are good for like small to mid cocktail hours...
