In monitor position on the floor direct in from Helix it sounded better than the powercab for my use but not quite the magic I was looking for. They sounded great in fact they were great for putting the whole band through at rehearsal even without subs.
So I got rid of it and bought a pair of QSC K12.2 speakers. I originally bought a powercab for this purpose but I found that it didn’t translate the presets I had created on FRFR speakers even when it was on the FRFR setting. For live use I run direct and use in ear monitors so I don’t have any backline or wedges on stage but I still wanted something quick to be able to plug into if I didn’t need or want to set up the whole PA in the rehearsal space between gigs.
