Dai Evans (or Evans the Mix as he's known locally) is a true genius. If you want a big sound, these are big! Apparently Jimmy Manic had one tied to his foot when he jumped off the Severn Bridge and he never surfaced, that's how big!
When I used to mix Ivor the Engine for the BBC, I found it impossible to achieve the true Welsh sound without an Evans.
