Here it is, the AKG actives showdown! The custom JK Labs system vs. AKG's ck_x system. Both were on the same stand and run into a Busman 4 channel T-Mod R-4 at 24/48.

http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=521655Being a total slut, and being in the right place at the right time, I ended up with both systems. Knowing that I can really only keep one, I figured the Wood Brothers show would be a great opportunity to stage the showdown and decide which way I am gonna go. This is the first staight comp that I have run. Great situation to try them out together. The Tupelo Music Hall is a very nice sounding venue that typically attracts a "polite" crowd. So far it's a real toss up between the two. I think I will need to run a few more comps to know for sure which way I am gonna wanna go.
