That kind of case I want. This is ZMF Pendant. Where do I buy those?

Seahorse and pelican are two manufacturers of cases like that.

There are tons of options online, just search for weatherproof cases that have customizable foam inserts. You need to check if the internal case dimensions have at least a few inches to spare for length,, width,, and height,, since you need to allow some space for the foam. Monoprice and Amazon have some, and probably some dj supply stores also have rugged cases.

Another question, can I run two headphones at the same time from Mainline? One from 6.35mm and another from XLR output?

The Mainline doesn't out put to both at the same time. You can have two headphones plugged in and switch between them with the output switch.
I don't have any XLR headphones right now, but before I did plugged in both and both were playing. I wasn't sure if it was safe.
I just tried to use the balanced switch, the 6.35 just gets a few DB quieter, but still works.

Interesting, I thought the switch was a toggle between the XLR and 6.35. I never tried plugging into both at the same time though.

Yes, you can do both, but from a post from BH on their forums it’s not optimal.

I was looking on the BH Forum to try and find a concrete answer on it.
I believe it was just a question posted in one of the threads that doc answered, not a full thread about it, but I honestly can’t remember. I remember something about the power being lessened with the xlr and 6.35 outputs connected at once. All from failing memory, though :).

Haha, I had just posted the question there about an hour ago. So you were probably reading the response to my question.

Oh, this was at least a year ago, let me know if there is any different answer!

My memory isn’t THAT bad :).
