WTB/ADVICE RE PA SPEAKER BAGS/COVERS

jimkehoe

I am after a pair of protective bags/covers for 2 QSC CP8 PA speakers.
Dimensions of each speaker = 440mm high 270mm wide 270mm deep
Has anyone either got anything suitable or can anyone advise me the best place to get hold of a couple at a reasonable cost.
Many thanks in advance.

As QSC CP8 sspeakers are around £400 each and the QSC CP8 bags are around £70 I wonder where you have been looking to have found the bags as expensive as the speakers.

For cheap I use pieces of carpet to keep the speakers and other items from touching and scratching during transport.

Not a serious comment - Tongue in cheek.
Thanks for the tip.

I use citronic speaker bags for my HK speakers from eBay, the HK ones are very expensive (but great protection) citronic not so heavy duty but do a job,so just do a search for 8” speaker covers on eBay check dimensions and don’t worry about the label.

I think Hotrox had some Black Friday deals.

Try Roqsolid covers, they take a while to make and deliver, but the quality is great and they're much more reasonably priced. They're bound to have some kind of Black Friday or seasonal deal on at the moment too.

Brilliant. Thanks to @maltingsaudio , @uncledick , & @JCA255O.
I’m on to it.

Hotcovers are excellent- no idea whether they are more or less dough though

Do you still need some?

I did get some citronic ones thanks, which are fine but are not specifically fitted to the QSCs. Would only be interested if you had fitted at a bargain price

There’s a guy called B Alec Coates trading as BECSEW on etsy, very high quality work and customer service. Good value too.

Great - thanks for the heads up. I am sorted but will bear it in mind for future reference.
