I don't think they own dawn, but they handle sales and marketing or something. I used one of these dawn systems to demo the echoplex at the last namm show. They sound pretty good. We were also demoing various analog synths and hammond b-3 simulators, and the low end from the subwoofer really made this stuff sound great. I had my dod Death Metal pedal with me, and with the tight bass response it sounded down right terrifying! I turned the "pain" knob up and people were literally collapsing in front of me! Well, not really, but they would have if not for those darned sound police imposing db limits..... The dawn has a mixer and power amp built into a suitcase for easy carrying. The sattelites are quite small, like 6 inches square. They mount on sturdy mic-type stands. The sub is the only big piece, and its about combo amp size. I think it would work fine for looping needs. I'm not sure of the specs, but it does sound quite good. Probably better for smaller gigs, I don't think it has enough juice to fill big clubs or anything. A guy I know that demo's and clinics zeta electric violins uses one and likes it quite a lot. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@annihilist.com | http://www.annihilist.com/loop/loop.html http://www.annihilist.com/ | Loopers-Delight-request@annihilist.com
