Hi,

With or without roadcase? I seem to recall the weight with road case is about 77 US Pounds.

Roadcase has handles on the sides and while I have to very careful how I lift things due to a back injury, I have comfortably carried it typical distances from car to stage and vice verse.

I always keep a straigh back and lift mostly with my legs and knees and never do any sudden side turns or bendover things to lift with bended back- that's a sure way of getting a sour back from lifting.

Have fun
BJ

Thanks Bjorn! I figured with all the options it has, it would be heavy. :)

Hi,

Yes a bit heavy, while weight is distributed evenly and handles are to the sides to suggest and aid carrying without back breaking.

Ah, at some point I'd like to design a 140W 4x12 combo, perhaps loaded with EV 12L's.........with a little handle on top.................. :idea:

Have fun
BJ

I'm guessing the satisfaction from the tone outweighs (pun intended) the inconvenience of the weight. :)
