Default American DJ Powerbars in Calgary?

Anyone know where I can find the American Dj PC-100A 8 Channel powerbars in Calgary? Or should I just order them online?

Long and McQuade. Although they had to order them in for me anyways. I think they normally carry stock I just have crappy luck.

i always have to pre order from long and McQ . these powerbars are about $20 cheaper in the U.S.
my experience is when you order online they charge a premium for delivery to canada.
when i travel to the US i order online and have them delivered to my hotel, having a US delivery address saves $$.

All good points and true. I'm usually not travelling tho and shoot for convenience. First time around I bought them used from a local dj serives in town (starlite rentals) but they have since started charging way too much and only selling new last I asked.

I'll be looking to add a couple more to the one I'm currently using for the new tank.

Yeah they're reall sick powerbars. I'm going to run 4 of them on my new setup.

Do you remember what you paid for them at L&M?

Do you think that there would be any problem with humidity in a stand with sump?

I think they'll be just fine in a stand with a sump. It's humid sure but most stands are able to breath with some sort of opening in the back etc.

I think I paid $45 last time at L&M but it's been a while.
