Re: PA advice
hi, the system is ok for small rooms only, pubs, possibly village hall etc,
but not much more, dont expect monster bass and crisp tops, it uses cheap drivers. i'll sell you one for £425 if you insist https://vault1.secured-url.com/bk/sc...?idproduct=700 but first have a look at some of the systems at www.hkaudio.com , the quality is top, certainly worth the extra money. regards Colin www.bksound.co.uk "rjs" <miscstuff@btinternet.com> wrote in message news:bgiibn$5dn$1@hercules.btinternet.com... > Any views on this system for using in room of up to 100 people? > > Anyone have 1? > > Or any suggestions want to pay about £600 tops > > > > Gemini XTR 400 Powered System > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Complete Professional Bi-Amp 2 Way DJ Speaker System with Amplifiers > Compact Powered Subwoofer (with wheels), 2-10" Satellites speakers, > 820 Watts total power, 200 watts RMS for the sub, 85 watts RMS for each > satellite, Crossover built in, XLR or 1/4" inputs, Speakon Outputs > Will handle weddings up to 250 people Sounds Awesome!

Re: PA advice
The big system (Lucas I think- I mix them up) has had both subs blow amps
( output transistors) .. Similarly he has lost power to the smaller system by way of blow rail fuses on a couple of occasions now. Its a real pain in the ass when your at a gig, then ringing friends to pick up gear and run around trying to patch a system together. It happened as recently as last Friday night. The venue was "not" impressed as you would imagine.

Re: PA advice
If you good with electronics (hell just ok with it) you can* probly build a
nice system for that much money.. now i'm under the impression you dont have an amp? welp if you look in The Musicians Friend they have some pretty nice stuff in there for cheap..JBL EON 15 Powered for $399.. you cant beat that price.. if you can swing it i would get a couple of EON 15 powered and if you can swing a little more get a powered sub by: squire or someone of the like to pack a little more lowend.. the eon's are pretty nice i was running them then i got the Mackie SRM 450s and i'm a real happy dj.. these speakers are really nice.. if you can reallllllyyyyy swing i would get these.. little expensive though..
