Help for Justin Crescendo Abrahams
Donation protected
A crime has been committed against one of Sacramento's good ones.
Justin Crescendo Abrahams, owner of Fathom Sound, has worked with the Sacramento music community for well over a decade and with Requiem Events for almost 7 years. He has provided sound equipment and engineering for some of the most memorable events in Sacramento's past. In addition to being one of the nicest, most genuine most approachable people in our town, he is a music community figurehead, a staple and a professional whose hard work consistently exceeds what is asked of him by those around him. Though music is his passion, his equipment is his livelihood; he relies on it to provide for the ones he loves most: his family. Justin's trailer was broken into early Monday morning. In it were tens of thousands of dollars of gear, all of which was stolen. Speakers, amps, microphones, audio interfaces, expensive cords, his cargo trailer was also badly damaged... The loss to Justin is massive; this theft of his property will be a detriment to his business and will affect his entire family. As a community of music enthusiasts who prides itself on taking care of its own, let's rally behind him like he deserves. Let's provide something for someone who has provided us with so much. Please consider donating some of your hard-earned dollars to help one of our community's best guys recover from this unjust, unfortunate circumstance. He has earned it.
If you would prefer to donate directly to Justin, his PayPal handle is [email redacted] and his VenMo handle is @crescendo.
Additionally, until he is able to recover his losses, if you can make available any professional-grade sound equipment at his already-planned events to help decrease the severity of the impact on his family, please comment on the campaign page and one of us will contact you.
Justin's theft alert, which includes a comprehensive list of the missing equipment, copied and pasted from his Facebook message:
THEFT ALERT, Sacramento, CA! Any leads, please help. I just want my stuff back. This is how I scrape by to pay bills and help feed our family of 5. The sub has only been tested once and was my newest box. Not even screw holes filled, mouth bracing completed nor grill. The following (plus more) was stolen at 1:30 AM April 15th:
1 x 21SW152-4 horn loaded sub (30"H x 24"W x 40"D). Black texture, yet unfinished.
2 x HS12 (custom 12" short horn mid-hi w/Eminence 12A & Beyma Cd10Nd on LTH102 HF horn.
1 x Powersoft K10 DSP amplifier
1 x Crown MA-9000i amplifier
1 x dbx Driverack 260
1 x Crown XTi4002 amplifier
2 x 6U amp rack (one is newer Stellar Labs, one is old SKB roller)
1 x Roland Quad-Capture USB audio interface
1 x Cross Spectrum Labs calibrated EMM-6 measurement microphone
3 x duffle bags (one dark blue, one red & black & one grey) full of NL2 & NL4 Speakon (Audiopile 13AWG, LiveWire 12AWG), XLR (mostly GLS Audio), USB, IEC & Edison power cables (25-100’ 12AWG, 14AWG), etc (most with my info sticker on the ends (look for residue if they’ve removed them)
1 x dbx RTA-M measurement microphone
1 x Presonus Audiobox audio interface
1 x DeWalt locking hex key set
1 x black & silver briefcase
I’m probably forgetting some items. I’ll update if I remember any others.
