Took the maui % on her maiden run today for a performance of about 75 PP and I was more then satisfied that I made the right choice. This unit really sounds good for a smaller venue with enough gusto to cover a small to medium size room for sure....bass was tight, clear mids & highs searing over the top,...my vocals were strong and so was the VH2 harmonies and I really pushed it today to make sure, no clipping or distortion,....I had the master Vol and channel vol both at 2pm. Its very easy to transport and set up also.

One thing I Noticed and didn't realize looking at the picture in my previous post that when I tried a 1/4 jack in the back of the unit thinking it was a dual input it wasn't,....It seems to be only XLR but no problem changing cables I carry both anyway.
All in All if your thinking Maui 5 for small jobs
go for it or two !!

enjoy!!

That's a good looking line array. Congratulations. A good price good sound. A winning combination. Bluetooth audio is a nice touch. I have the Maui 11, and the Maui 28. I like them both, but the column speaker of the 11 does not fold in half and it's cumbersome to carry it. Does the 5 fold in half?

ok I had some time this morning to figure out what went wrong regarding the cables & rear inputs...as I suspected it was the fault of a bad wire which I haven't used in a while and now I know why,....so I tried it again using a brand new dual 1/4" to 1/4" jacks in the rear inputs connected to the S970 and it works perfectly now as it should! clap ...
It's official now you can use both XLR or 1/4" with the Maui 5.
I'll take it out to a small Wedding Sunday see what it can do in that situation.cool2

carry on...
