Hi guys,
I'm wanting to upgrade my smaller passive speaker set up.

Am looking at possibly going with the W audio PSR12's as I run the PSR15A's as my active set up and am more than impressed with these.

Budget wise looking around the £300 mark, Rating wise probably 300w (ish). any suggestions/ advice would be great.

300watt total or RMS?

Just bought the Carlsbro Gamma 8 active's at about £250 and they sounded superb on Saturday. Lovely small and compact too.

I use the mackie s300z's and they are good up to about 150 people without subs. But they are not light for a 12" weigh the same as my peavet 15st's.

Thats the best price I could find hunting round this afternoon and they're in stock aswell.

They're getting some C200's back in stock next week but I think they maybe too small. Price is going up to £249 still cheap though
