Small doorways and 29" cabs

Post by Red5 »

Ok desperate for some 29" sweetness, couple up and down the country at the mo, price is not a subject/problem , but getting one in through my double glazed doors, fromt or back is looking very tight, or impossible ( maybee doors come of hinges etc, i know there is a thread about getting a New Areo City in a astra van and that the cabs break down into 4 parts, monitor, mcover, back and stand? but what i need to know is what is the dimmensions of the then brokendown
parts? searched all weekend , not much luck
Cheers Daz

The astro breaks down so well it will get through most doors.

The base part is the widest but when its apart, you can tilt it at an angle to get it through most doors easy! :D

It would have to be a very akward/small door to not fit.
What is the width of your door??

Naomi will break down to the point that it can fit through any doorway that a normal person can fit through :lol:

That is the exact width of an AC/NAC! ;)

It might not have to come apart at all! :mrgreen:

Yeah, you could prob squeeze it through but sometime **** gets in the way. My door for where I keep my cabs is at an angle and sor of in the was of the banister of the stairs so my cabs have to come apart esp the AERO as then had to be lifted abu 4 ft in the air to clear the banister! :D
