Powered speakers-What are yours?
Looking at getting something new. Ideally powered speakers that only require a sub for the larger venue. So.........;
What make are your powered speakers and why do you love them?

Well the ones which see most use are Proel V15A, simply because they manage quite happily without a sub, they're relatively light, and have handles on the top. Also, they're pretty loud.
If I'm using subs, then it's usually 12" LD Stingers.

I use the Yamaha DXR 12's. Nice and light and fabulous sounding. Also very flexible with the multiple inputs/mini-mixer on the back.

A pair of RCF 712a for my tops. Clear, loud, pretty light and just fantastic overall.
For subs, it's a pair of RCF 905a.

My main speakers are RCF Evox 8 - benefit is you carry a top and bass bin in each hand as the combination weighs similar to most powered tops and the top speaker stores in the bass bin.
Admittedly I personally think a pair of decent tops and bins would blow these out the water but they are so practical it saves a lot of time and carrying, and have never been in a situation where I needed more - although I do mainly small/medium venues. When I used a normal bin/top combination most the time I left the bins in the van (admittedly out of pure laziness largely )

Same as above, but with 715's.

Most of the time it's Mackie 450 v2 for me and if I need a bit extra I will use RCF 705 AS Subs with them.
I also have some DB Technologies Basic 400's which are quite nice and used for smaller venues.

If I'm not using subs then my pair of mighty DXR15's will cope with most venues without even breaking sweat (including a couple of open air gigs last year). Put 'emon the floor if on a stage and there's no need to even consider subs.
If using subs (and indeed my weapons of choice), then the combo of DSR112's and DXR8's have to be heard to be believed. I still can't believe such a tiny cone can produce such power, even after using them for the past 6 months.
