SQ-5 or Behringer Wing?
I currently use a SQ-5 (original version) with 2x AB1608 snake. Or atleast I used to. The snakes got water damage so I only have the console at the moment.
I have seen colleagues have good luck / liking the Behringer Wing. I’ve been eyeing it and I like the ability to just slap a bunch cheap DL8’s into mic and amp racks instead of expensive dante.
I do mostly corporate, with some live gigs in between.
So I can now either order new snakes for the SQ-5 (about 2k) or buy into the Wing which will set me back about 3k for Wing + 2x DL16, if I sell the SQ-5 it’ll probably get me 1k back also. So its the same investment for 2 A&H snakes or 2 Midas snakes and a new wing board.
What would you do?
