Zonerc youre gonna love it. Play around for a bit because there is so much to learn and enjoy with this elite mixer. I am convinced this is one of the main reasons why I get the compliments I do on my sound.

I will spotlightjr ,the one thing i notice with out even using it is its alot more solid than may behringer 1832fx cant wait to give it ago on thursday.

As i used to have the kam eq152 connected to my old amp mixer the kam kka400 with phono/rca leads then behringer 1832fx to the amp,now ive got the behringer ep2500 amp instead and allen & heath zed 12fx how do i link the kam eq in as there is no phono/rca plugs on the amp can it be put into any of the phono/rca sockets on the zed 12fx or will i need other leads.
i wasnt going to bother with it with the behringer 1823fx as it has the 9 band stereo Eq but now i have the the zed 12 it dont have the 9 band and wondering if its worth putting it back in as i still have it but only have phono leads at the moment?

The best place to insert the eq is in the main inserts on the mixer. You will need Y-insert cables with a TRS on one end and 2 phonos (RCA) on the other.

The Kam EQ152 has 1/4" jacks on it so you can use a standard TRS (stereo 1/4") to 2 x mono 1/4" jack insert lead for each channel. Like this but they're a lot cheaper on ebay.

cheers gunghouk
i take it you mean to use the y cable from the in/out of one channel on the EQ and then into the left or the right insert socket next to the main out on the zed 12 then a second y cable from the other channel in /out on the eq to the other insert on the zed 12.

Yup you gottit

thanks m8 thought so.
the kam isnt a great unit but think it may be better than nothing with the zed 12 not having an Eq strip

The tip of the stereo plug is the out of the mixer and goes to the input of the eq and the ring is the return/out from the eq. Et voila !

Of course if you had sooper dooper amp & speakers and worked in perfect acoustic venues you wouldn't need the eq..heheh

tup and if i won the lottery to pay for it .
but for now just do the best i can with all available equipent i should hopefully notice a differance once the zed 12 is up and running .

Sam Ash has the 12FX for $499 which is, I believe, around the price suggested when Micky first mentioned the ZET14?

Thanks ericlater
but already have the mixer was just sorting out how to hook up my Equlizer to it.
got a good deal on it here in the uk.

when I was a kid, I used to put together electronic hobby projects like radios, some of which were made by Heath. Is that the same company, basically, as Heath & Allen?

not sure m8 ,this is the first item ive had off them and just know that they are an English company.

Hmmm, I don't think so I also had one of those "Heathkit" amplifier but A&H are well known for their mixers, it's just that they never really entered the "Mass" market, it's always been a "High End" brand for pro artist and studio's.

It's no secret to anyone, UK is the home of High Fidelity! Record company's like London Record (old Dekka), brands like B&W, Celestion, Wharfedale, Kef, Tannoy and Mission... are prestigious name in home speakers. The Brits always had a unique sound

The new Zed series is unique, I just don't know how much you need to spend to get the equivalente in sound quality with the other brands, but for the same price, forget it, no match in my opinion

anyone know what size case you need to old the zed 12fx i know its to fit 19" but some of the cases ive seen just say 10U ,i was looking at this case .

and he is also selling the 2 DBX266xl's on another advert .
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PAIR-OF-DBX-266XL ... 240%3A1318.
thought if i could scrape the money together i could offer him a good offer as he says open to offers,but not much point if the zed wont go.

The Zed 12 or 14 need a bracket to fit in a rack mount, check it out on their website

I think you can make a great deal on these 2 DBX which are strongly recommended
