Hello,
Ive got built in 1/4 and XLR wallplates in the walls of my studio. Ive got several sections around the room, which lead to my main console for recording, mixing ect. From there ive got 4 1/4 outs of my amp to power 2 stereo speakers. The room is decent size, 150 inches by about 250, standard sheetrock, nothing special. Ive got 5 people in the band who will be using the studio, which will all be run through to these PA speakers. Guitar/bass/keyboard/vocals will all be needed to be in the PA line. I dont know exacly how big of speakers i will need, of course, young teens like myself need ear blowing loudness
. I cant afford anything fancy, but a couple of PA cabs or something. I selected a few that look well and I will take your opinions on what ones look best suited for my needs.
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4027031 very cheap, pretty powerful, not too sure of the jensen name, but the look nice, with great numbers. I think two of these on each side of my room will be enough.
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=3724383 A little small, and dont know if they could supply enough power, but they would be ultra clear, and great name! I could afford 2 pairs, which would be 4 of them around the room. Because of the small drivers i might just get one pair, and a 12 inch woofer or something.
http://store.steelsound.com/Detail.bok?no=342 last is a pair of these, large, powerful woofers, titanium tweeter, the sound quite nice for the price and would have all the ability to provide the dynamics i crave.
Please tell me your opinions of each and what ones you think would be best, it's too much of a toss up for me, i wouldnt know what id be getting into and dont know exactly what id need to put out the power.
Thanks,
Phil
