VALVETRONIX PRO VTX150 NEODYMIUM

This looks very tempting. I've been on the look out for an all-in-one solution for practice recording and gigging for some time. It looks to have a small foot print too so won't take up too much space and will fit in the car easily. I think 150W should be enough for most gigs

Looks cool... I wonder what the price is?

 

[deeaa]

Hm, seems very interesting indeed. Hopefully I'll see one soon locally so I can test it.

 

[Duffy]

Imagine you'll PAY for that. Looks like the much anticipated reiteration of the old VTX'es that was expected to be a major mfg'ing endeavor with expensive R&D to build the needed changes in from the ground up.

Probably be very expensive. Neodymium is a rare earth metal produced solely by China. China recently decided to levy big taxes and restrict exports of the metal which means neo speaker prices are skyrocketing.

Lots of hand-wringing over this situation on the bass forums.

Yeah that looks awesome and filthy expensive. Hope it's more reliable than the old vtx.
