quote: I protest the whole concept, especially if accessing or servicing the speakers requires manipulation of the screen or anything more.
NOW...when was the last time that ANY speaker had to be accessed, or serviced - outside of the speakers getting stolen out of the bins, and who is gonna remove the screen from the frame to steal speakers in the first place?
Plus, if a speaker driver does blow, you take the speaker out of the bin from the front, thus there is really no need to swing the bin around.
Also, if the HF driver acts up, I'm sure that the task of sliding that bin out of that enclosure isn't all that tough to get to the HF driver (which are also rare cases of going out..unless some freaking idiot upstairs on the amp rack decides to set the dips on the processor to full bandwidth instead of biamp, where all of the frequencies are sent to both HF and LF speakers via the amplifiers..then the HF diaphram loves to be destroyed..)
One doesn't have to COMPLETELY remove a screen to access speakers, even if they are on a platform. It's not that hard to rehang, and restring/respring any screens..(if you know how to do it right, and if you don't, better holler at a tech to do such of a task).
Sorry, that's a bit of a good one.
