Darren, guess what system I am going to recommend? Like Tony with his Nexo PS boxes, I too have a certain manufacturer and range on the tip of my tongue. I'd hate to suggest something that is probably not suitable...
Would it be okay to share my thoughts?
Why wouldn't it be?Quote:

I don't like to blast people with loud music generally as I prefer a rounded sound focussed on the dancefloor, however i need a bit of oomph for the 18ths/21sts of course.
decisions decisions ....
A pair of RCF 310a's and your RCF sub will give you a cracking rig. I have both the 310s and the 312s but I am actually going to sell my 312s as I tend to just use the 310s as they are that good. I have never managed to get them into the red and that is playing in some seriously large Edinburgh venues. Some might argue that the sound is a bit processed but I actually think they have a lot on common sound wise with B & W speakers, really nice detailed sound but with some grunt.
Dont you already have the speakers for the 100 or so audience size?Quote:

Im not a Mackie fan particularly but have worked with them ok no problem.
Especially if high volume isnt needed much, for louder more modern events just get a smaller lighter sub perhaps?
There have been previous comments about sound---:eek:
Lets face it its very personal and if you are used to the Mackies and you like them why change it if it aint broke:confused:
I know there are loads of speakers available with better quality apparently--but is anyone going to notice at an event where you dont want it loud.:confused:
Its only when you really start driving equipment hard the imperfections start coming out.
BTW if your having trouble with space I have a massive roof box for sale which will fit any vehicle--you buy the bars--brilliant for increasing space at virtually no cost, ideal for lighting, usb controllers or leads etc.
Well £150 to you;)
I have replaced my Mondeo with a 6 gear Motorway Eater (Galaxy) :D
What about a pair SRM 350v2's and a SWA1501 sub.... these system cover 150cap venues.
The SRM350v2 also sound a lot nicer than the 450v2's
He already has an RCF705AS, so that would taking a step back IMO.Quote:
