Well my trusty budget speakers can now be put to rest, the upgrades are on the way.
I was limited to a budget with I set up 18 months ago so started off with 4xEkho 12a tops and QTX 15" subs. It was a decent size PA for what cost me less than £600 with the aim of doing 1 years work.
I had a lot of stuff to learn about the audio side having been out the game for a long time so had not wanted to ruin any good gear and I have to say its done me proud as a PA. One of the subs however has died due to my clumsiness smashing off the knobs and 2 of the tops have been re-coned due to getting over zealous at times.
End result I thought it was time to get on the wagon and invest in some industry std speakers to match the other purchases Ive made.
So long story short I read a ton of reviews, spoke to some people and had a listen at a local music shop. Ive bought 2x FBT X-pro 12a's and a vertus sub. With covers for all its set me back around £1400 and when I pay this off i'll be getting a second sub.
I'm hoping by the end of the year I have the rig I want and have some plans for the summer with making a permanent DJ stand.
