Would I use a single unit for an 18th with 200 guests who liked their drum and bass? NO, it's not made for that, but I've got speakers that would make the little darlings ears bleed. Corabar Steve told me he has used a pair of them for a prom with 300 guests without any problems or lack of power. I think you will be able to form your own conclusions from these statements. If you do decide to go with them, get the Maui 28 Mix variant, it will give you a lot more flexibility, and if you buy the 'Bundle' from Thomann you can get the covers thrown in for not much extra cash, but watch the bank charges for changing the £s into euros.
    300 people sounds good. Seem a great compact for the price. I love the Evo 8 and Evo 12 but price is a killer.

    The Maui 5 is a much better bet for the money IMHO. I was impressed with the Curv the first time I ever heard it but subsequent listens have changed my view. £1500 for a background music system or severely underpowered main PA? Nah.

    Hi Steve,

    I cant work out what you mean by the last bit of your sentence (as it just does not make sense), but looking at it you seem to have taken it the wrong way hence the smileys in his post. Google the term also with mobilediscodirectory.co.uk and that can often find things the search facility will not as this is now quite an old management system (I think).

    I am thinking of getting a single white speaker like this, for background at meals as the sound travels much better. Having said that you can't put them way up in the air so would have to do a side by site?? They certainly look good for ceremonies and can blast out some vitamin string crap quite well. Bose stick are probably the best price line array type systems as they have been around for so long.

    I'm with Justin. The curv doesn't impress me, the Maui 5 does. Sadly, I've not heard a pair of 5s together. How a pair of them would compare to a Curv would be interesting.

    That looks nice! Good it has a mini mixer, that would save time. If I fitted a dual microphone and inside it (assuming there is space) that would be awesome. A white one would look cool in a ceremony. i need a better looking PA that can throw its sound evenly in a room, so that would work perfectly.

    Just looked they don't do them in white!!
