Donny,
I've seen several variations of the cases shown - gun cases and keyboard cases that were fitted with linings to protect the speakers. I don't think I would consider such a case because of the weight issue – the 2 speaker towers and the added weight of the hard case. To me, the fact the tower is in 2 pieces makes it easier for me to handle.
Ciao,
Jerry

besides having to carry 4 separate pieces and then trying to put the super tight covers on & off.....on & off every day really turned me off & in return had to get rid of my pose out of aggravation regarding portability....too much hassle on an everyday basis. No flexibility versus separate amps...you have to always use the whole setup Argggg!

Hey Donny - so what are you using now? I think I saw that you sold your Mackies. Just curious what sound system you are using on your gigs.

Donny, I have system 1, but I bought a stand bag which both halves of the pole fit into nicely. It has an internal seperator. I am out of town and don't remember the model, but it was about $30.
I never take the base unit out of the case, just unzip and roll it back.
Model 2 has a much small base unit, and the poles don't require a button to lock into place. It also spreads the sound even better.

Don...I did the same ting before I sold the Bose PAS...nothing against the sound ...just a pain in the butt to carry & set up all those pieces ALL THE TIME.

I don't know ..... Let's see ......
unzip, place
unzip, place
unzip, stack
unzip, stack again.......maybe 90 seconds in all. I'll spare the extra time folding those sturdy cases for that sweet sound , but I'll never carry a 50lb box around and sit it on the floor again. Not after I've been spoiled by the fullness of what I have ! God bless ya, Donny ..... You sound great on everything you buy.
