Budget stage powered monitor speakers

[aquaracer168]

any inputs regarding budget stage powered monitor speakers? Size, brand and price.

[Jef2]

i always love the sound of the wharfedales.  check out the classic evp 12pm series but it's now evp-x12pm.  i love the sound coming from a 12" for frontal monitors.  expect to have some hf issues which are the common problems among budget powered monitors using 1" hf drivers,  just bag in some spare hf diaphragms since they will really come in handy.  i'm not updated with the latest price but i am guessing around the 15thou price range or even lower.

clients of ours use the U10 or U10a for stage monitors for small venues.

from acoustic to pop this is ok, not for rock though.

what is you planned budget? for how many?

[aquaracer168]

thanks sa replies. budget is 20k to 25k per powered monitor speaker. what do you suggest 12inch or 15inch? para pwede din gamitin pang foh?

[forerunnermusic]

check out the new B3-N12A or N15A,  its a full grill enclosure

[aquaracer168]

how much sir? ano difference ng N15A sa TS and U series?

[acdsee]

phonic pa550 powered 15" speaker, ok pang touring, Umagang Kay Ganda band set-upm ganito gamit nila

[luffy]

sir, magkano po ang phonic? BTW, pwede ba pang monitor ang QSC Thump ba yon (@ around 25000 php each)?

[in_the_tent]

pasale ha.. ano bang pinakamurang powered speaker na pwede as monitor ng keys or acoustic guitar or electric drums?

Natry nyo na ba ung Live?

[aquaracer168]

@ acdsee - sir magkano phonic powered?

@ forerunnermusic - ano difference ng N15A sa TS and U series?

@ luffy - sir MACKIE THUMP ata yun, 25k each. 15 inch na yun.

[inCh]

try B3, Mackie TH-15a, or if you've heard of Studiomaster VPX15

[N1X]

TNT yung TS15 12K lang isa solb ka din pwede pang banda

[jejunaidrmmr]

ito patok at subok na matibay, mura pa.. hahaha KEVLER FR-12M 16k Each

kevlerpro.com yan yung site

[sikyo]

consider Beta 3 TS-, U-, or N-Series 12" or 15" cabs. sounds good, rotatable horn ng U- and N- models, good price, mukhang durable. sabi sa PSW better daw mons ang 12" kesa 15" but i've no experience to compare, though a 15 incher would be more flexible (for FOH use na rin). 2 lepta only

[dekturrr]

RCF art310 sir. =)

[dekturrr]

kung Mackie Thump (15 inch / 25k each) OR B3 (15inch / less than 25k each) ano mas reliable at mas sulit?

i bought a single B3 U8a powered speaker for keyboard amplification,

i use it with a xenyx behringer mixer,

after 2 years of once a week use, pumutok na.

some forumers ang sabe nila its too short for its lifespan.

i don't know,

pero i think i'm not buying a B3 anymore.

[senti]

@dekturr


Hhehehehe....laugh trip yun pare.

Ikaw naman, 8" para sa Kayboard amp...kahit sino naman ata di gagawin yun.

Binge mga keyboardista, sila pinaka ma-demand sa experience ko, di ko kaya tumabi sa kanila pag tugtugan.

Ang Keyboard amp nila Peavey KB-300 na and may 15" para sa band monitor nila pero humihingi pa.

kami nga pang DJ monitor at least 12"....keyboard player pa.

Tumagal sayo ng 2 taon ang U8a, bilib pa ako dun!

WAT-DA  Dude, start with a 12" at least or better yet get a hefty 15".

[dekturrr]

So kung bibili ako ng 1 pc na RCF art 310 for my keyboard monitor?

de 10" yun,  hindi ba adviceable?

if not, anong magandang speaker pang keys?

hindi naman ako malakas mag monitor mga chong, basta marinig ko lang ok na.
