Currently own Alto TS215 x2 and 2 Alto TSSUB18 x 2 (currently on sale).
I am upgrading but going for a compact system. I'm torn between the systems below.
FBT J12a x 2
FBT Subline 15sa x 2
FBT XLITE 12a x 2
FBT X SUB15sa x 2
Yamaha DXR12 x 2
Yamaha DXS15 x
RCF ART712a x 2
RCF ART 705-as x 2
Or suggestions of a different set up but needs to be compact. I have considered line array but found the bass lacking.
Can anyone give assistance with recommendation. All of the above are within my budget.
I heard this system at BPM and was blown away by it.
If I were buying a system now, I'd choose this over an Evox 8 or CS1000 type system.

Compact and well worth the money.
It'll last you years.
Hello Imran. Welcome along to what is a mine of useful information and help. Could I ask you please to pop across to the Newbies section and introduce yourself. Not only is it nice to know a bit about who we're typing to, but it can help us to tailor advice. Thanks.
To your question. I'm struggling with a set of 15" subs and 12" tops being a " compact " system. That's my Large rig. :)
I'd expect all the ones you've suggested to offer a performance upgrade from the Altos, and be lighter/smaller in some respects. What I don't know is what is your average gig. Are you usually playing to two hundred 18 year olds wanting it loud, rather than under a hundred mixed age groups at a wedding, where volume isn't the main aim.
One of our number has had much success with a rig which I would describe as compact, Yamaha 8" tops over 12" subs. There is a growing trend to use eight or ten inch tops over twelve inch subs, in a trade off between ultimate performance and portability. I've heard a single sub and two RCF 310 tops blow away a larger sized six box rig at a demo.
If you can let us know a bit more about what you want your rig to do, others may come up with better ideas.
