Floyd I've been to a club back in the 90's it was a very famous club for LBTQ folks (Soundfactory). Reason why me and my friends went there it was because we met the DJ aka: Junior Vasquez doing a music video with Cyndi Lauper in Queens NYC. My brother struck a conversation with him and when he told my brother he was a DJ for a famous club my brother starting telling him about me being a DJ. So we got invited and I was ready to see stuff that you don't see everyday actually we were warned that it was a gay club. We were kind of iffy in going, we've never been to a place like that, but decided to go.
Anyway we went to the DJ booth but before we enter on the outside of the booth were stacks of rackmount QSC amplifiers I mean like probably 15 to 20 amps or more to power the Lows, Mids and Highs! The sound was crazy!! You couldn't hear yourself talking and the subs good lord they just shook the floor!!!
He played from Saturday night/morning 12 am until Sunday early afternoon and these amps never had a hiccup!!
