| Charline Dye 25.01.2013 | Rcf-312a's are right in your budget. I like mine. Plan on a sub for larger rooms and crowd, but for smaller rooms/crowds they work great by themselves and have good mid bass with very clean highs. |
| Wendell Bolmer 25.01.2013 | Thanks guys again for all the help with this, after further research and advice from you guys. I feel I want to up my budget so I recently have been looking at the JBL PRX612M & QSC K10's. Can I please get some insight into which are better for House music as well as produce more bass without a subwoofer. Any feedback would be much appreciated since most reviews online comparing both are back and forth and would like to get feedback from you guys. |
| Nadia Shelmadine 10.01.2013 | I had the Mackie Thumps 15" and stay away from those. They're fine for house parties, but they're not loud enough for professional use. Now I use Mackie SRM450V2's and they've been fine for a year now. They're smaller, but heavier, and very, very much louder than Thumps. I would have bought RCF Art312A's, but I had an incredible deal on my 450's. I haven't heard 312's, but 310's were amazing... |
