Members Gravity Posted March 25, 2005 Members Share Posted March 25, 2005 I just received a check for some equipment I put on consignment about a year ago, and now a decent mixer is a possibility. I'm a guitarist who sings and I don't really know much about mixers and PA stuff other than the fact that I want the vocals LOUD. Mic'ing the other instruments is secondary right now. I have a QSC RMX1450, an SM58, an SM57 and a pair of older Peavey 115 International Series III PA cabs (3 - ways) that are rated at 200 watts continuous and 400 program. Each of these cabs will soon be receiving a new 15" Black Widow replacement basket (one currently has a torn cone and I figgure I might as well replace the other while I have my credit card out.) This system will be used for rehearsals as well as small shows (bars and stuff ... 100 people max) Which of these mixers should I go for ... or is there something else below the $350 mark you would suggest? Thanks fellas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMS Author Craig Vecchione Posted March 26, 2005 CMS Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 I've been happy with my RQ2318. No knock against the Yammy...they seems like good little mixers for the money, but the RQ seems a lot more rugged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members woody b Posted March 27, 2005 Members Share Posted March 27, 2005 I've got a Yamaha MG 12/4. It's a great little mixer, I've not had a minutes trouble. Don't have any experience with the Peavey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mr2good Posted March 28, 2005 Members Share Posted March 28, 2005 I've been asking the same question Gravity. Without much personal experience, I can tell you the advice that was given to me. In your price range the best bang for your buck are going to be the soundcraft spirit series, the Peavey RQ series, and if you can afford an allen and heath. After a month of research I recently bought a perfect condition Soundcraft Spirit E12 for $310 on eBay. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
