FX Speakers
Shows with a good budget can often afford to use speakers seen on the FOH speakers page for FX. Where budget or size constraints dictates otherwise the speakers here are often used.
d&b E3 & Meyer UPM -
Both small sized speakers with high power and quality output. Popular as Front Fill, Under Balcony Fills, FX & even as Pros spk's on low-level shows.

d&b E0
About the same size as a JBL Control 1, but sounding much closer to an E3 with reduced bass. Often used in conjunction with sub-bass speakers to form a high-quality yet discreet surround system.
