  1. hey the peavey pro subs do the job. they are good in small-medium venues and ive heard a lot of positive stuff about them, for the price you cant go wrong. were you looking for active or passive subs?? :hphone:
  2. the bose L1 looks really good. have you just got one L1 speaker there or 2. surely it would be mono if you just have one unless bose have done something to make it stereo?? how much power does it put out? your setup looks brilliant, as always :pro: :photo:
  3. the only 2 mistakes ive ever made is. -ejecting the wrong cd -announceing the wrong song title over the mic :S
  4. yeah i guess it would be a good idea for smaller venues when im in a smaller venue instead of taking my 15" tops i take a smaller 12" pair of tops as you dont really need much in small venues
  5. i run virtual dj but if that fails i have cds and a numark dual cd player mounted in my rack i have a backup amp and a backup mixer and loads of spare leads and stuff like that
  6. yes i will keep the levels nice,i do live sound also so i know about getting the balences between freqencys etc... right and i will keep my mixer tapping into 0dB. yeah ill defo do a video giglog!
  7. the system dosent look too bad they have about 3-6 img stageline plastic 12" or 15" speakers which should be ok. and im gonna try and see if i can go and hear the system before the event, this will probably be possible. thanks :)
  8. hey guys just took a booking for a 30th birthday in july and the venue has a in-house sound system. have any of you ever had to use a in-house sound system, what sould i do because it says in the terms and conditions for the venue: 27. All music equipment i.e. disco equipment, microphones etc. MUST be connected to the in-house sound system/speakers but im worried that the in-house sound system isnt going to sound as good as my system. is there a way round using there in-house system? thanks patrick :)
  9. hey guys i need your help here. i want to get a new subwoofer and i decided i want to go for an active subwoofer. my 2 choices are 1 samson db 1800a 1000w 18" powered sub - ive used 2 of these for live sound before and they are really exellent. 2 studiomaster vpx15 600w 15" powered subs they look good and they are a nice price. my problem is what sub/s would be better for mobile work the samson one drops to 20hz and it has a nice high pass crossover that you can set via a frequency sweep control on the back. but the studiomasters look nice and i could get 2 of
  10. york house, stony stratford in milton keynes. in the performers area they have a noise limiter unit with a bar graph display up high on the wall coming from that they have a reset switch lower down. its a nice venue but the noise limiter is VERY sensitive if you drag a chair along the floor or drop something it makes he first few greens light up. i couldnt play the system very loud because its very sensitive people still enjoyed the evening though. 30 people singing happy brithday and cheering does manage to make the 'over limit' lights come on. and i couldnt cover up
  11. powered mixers are alright would be better to use an amp and a separate mixer... what are you using it for? the change from 4 ohm to 8 ohm will be automatic, the amp will sense i the speaker is 4 or 8 ohms the lower the ohmerage the wattage tou can achieve but you can only get 4 ohms but connecting 2 4 ohm cabinets to the power mixer or by linking 2 8 ohm cabinets together for each side hope ive made sence :)
  12. hi guys i have a hercules dj control mp3 controller with vdj 3 console edition i want to upgrade to the hercules steel and vdj 5 console edition but i need to know how id set it up so i can use headphone previewing here it is http://www.hercules.com/uk/DJ-Music/bdd/p/...duct_min_config so i need to know what id need and how id setup headphone previewing and the main output to go into the actual dj mixer with this system hope you get what i mean cheers :hphone:

  15. hi guys so i got my peavey pro 15s hooked up to my new amp which is a kam kxr1000 the speakers are 4 ohm cabinets and they are getting 500w each the speakers are 300w rms 600w program and 1200w peak each i was told 500w per channel is fine for those speakers but i was wondering where do i set the attenuation controls on the amp because i know i have headroom. im happy with my pa setup though i did a gig recently in a medium sized hall for about 100 kids it was a school disco and the system did well had plenty of headroom. ill shut up now my question was where should i set the atte
  16. :welcome: hi guys just got my new amp today, i decided to go for the kam kxr 1000 500w rms per channel @ 4 ohms 340w rms per channel @ 8 ohms and it does bridged at 8 ohms its a really good amp sounds really clear and loud. id highly recommend it
  17. cheers for your comment... theres a few things im left with then: im waiting for warrior to phone me back if its beond economical repair will either: A) sell it on ebay for spares and repairs or B) just leave it sitting around collecting dust or C) it dosent work so it makes a good paper weight :funjokeandlaugh: so what should i do what do you think if you were in this position what would you do cheers :joe: :joe:
  18. the speakers were working last time the amp was up and running and they will be fine, the drivers in the speakers dont have any damage but theyve been gigged so the actual cabinets are a bit bashed up but thats not gonna kill the insides and the leads are ok
  19. hey jason cheers for your comment . you said the outputs were connected to the same speaker. even though thats a bad idea could it be the speakers that caused it, im hoping its not and is not i think because u get the same problems wiv the speakers not plugged in
  20. Hi guys, Im hving a problem with my amplifier and need some sort of assistance, i emailed the company and they just said 'the transistors might be blown' :damn: how unhelpful but heres the problem: I've been running this amp for mobile use for just over a year now. However it has developed a fault. The power input fuse blew so I replaced it with the spare included which worked fine for a while but then blew. I've tried a few more matching 250V fuses that have also blown. What happens is, you put a new fuse in and turn on the amp, instead of the power and protection LED
  21. This is very confusing all i know is sockets are 13 amps and you should never overload them i need some more inside information on this!! cheers
  22. ive got the american audio q spand pro 19" mixer it has 4 channels xlr outs 2 mic channels and the option of a 3rd it has a srs wow feature built in and when you activate it it makes the sound tidier and brighter. its a very nice mixer i really enjoy it. its a big step up from my old numark mixer smile icon tongue out icon
  23. you should get a pair of the matching titan active subs i think they are 15" and/or 18" :hphone:
  24. cheers for your comment Glenn, carlsbro do make some really good gear i know a friend who uses a carlsbro pa for live osund ive heard it and it sounds really good as for the humming when the musics playing i always think itll damage the speakers is that true itll damage them?
  25. nope i use a behringer ultravoice wired mic its a good mic sounds good id say as good as a sm58 or so will be getting a wireless mic soon what wireless mic have you got because im staying clear of the cheap ones for sure
