Members Nick the Lips Posted December 8, 2005 Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 Does anybody know anything about these speakers (powered 15" and 1" horn)? What are your experiences with them and how would you rate them for their price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Nick the Lips Posted December 8, 2005 Author Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 I would be using them for front of house in mostly small to medium sized bars, playing acoustic folk and folk punk with bass/drums/electric guitar. The music's not loud compared to most rock bands. I would probably sometimes have bass, guitar, fiddle, vocals running thought them but probably no drums. Do you know the RMS rating on these speakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members abzurd Posted December 8, 2005 Members Share Posted December 8, 2005 Originally posted by Nick the Lips Do you know the RMS rating on these speakers. The RMS really doesn't matter with powered speakers. The amp is built in so you have no options for powering them. Doesn't really matter with passives as much as most people think either, as the efficiency of the driver itself dictates how much "rubber hits the road". All you need to know is what SPL it can put out. A word of warning though, this spec is as arbitrary to most budget speaker makers as every other spec they tout. But if you need to know a power number - 400W low and 100W high is what they say. Whether that's a RMS, Program, or Peak measurement and what the criteria for measurement was, who knows. Most powered speaker manuals don't specify anything but a number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
