Re: [Harp-L] re: Loud extreme amps

Eventually, those willing to embrace new technology, forget everything that used to be the "rules" in regards to sound reinforcement, and willing to spend some $, will discover what I have - the BOSE PAS System. Mic'ing a small wonderful sounding harmonica amp (or using direct out as Brian has in his HarpGear line) and using the BOSE to put the sound in the air eliminates all the problems and complaints that have existed to this point in regards to harmonica/vocal sound reinforcement on the gig.
 
I am bringing this concept forward to concerts/shows that I promote and/or participate in and friends of mine that are major touring/recording artists in the hopes that more will get turned on to what totally excites me in concept and execution.
