Smaller Speaker Options ... ?

[TONYTIGER]

No need, I have worked with Nexo PA on a number of occasions and I have things called ears. Appaling high pitched whine all things considered.

Sound is very personal and my opinion is valid, as is yours if you like them.

Although I'm right...

Perhaps you would like to give us some links to any Nexo review that is negative as i have only seen rave reviews and the company have one so many awards .
Perhaps you have been using them without the right processor .
Oh and most of the stages at some serious festivals request Nexo monitors.

Tony - why can't you let other people have their opinions about Nexo? Not everyone is going to like them. Sound is personal.

I worked at a CenterParc that had a Nexo system in the "club"...it was bloody aweful. Even the sound guys who came to "fix" it said the same...

It seems to me that its a system that can sound sweet when its set up 150% correctly, and sound absolute pants if set up slightly wrong...

For smaller gigs I've gotten away with EV 200sx They've got a pretty decent full-range sound for 12"s. My normal speakers are 15" ProLight E-115s but they are really heavy.

That's true. I did a venue once that had it's own Bose sound system installed and I thought it sounded terrible. The crowd didn't seem to mind, though.

I've had different experiences with Mackies. A set I once used sounded really raw but others have been really good.

So going back to the OP and veering back OT, lets say I got a pair of RCF 310A's/410A's as these fit within the non Nexo budget Would these be suitable for smaller functions. I get things like 60th, 70th, 80th birthdays sometimes where the music selection is mostly non chart.

Would they give a balanced and acceptable sound to Dancing Queen and the Beatles at moderate volumes ?

Anyhow...personally i would go for the 312a's over the 10s...i know that it makes them a bit bigger but the bass difference is really noticable when ran side by side (ive the 12s and a mate has the 10s, but his are solely used for small PA or background only requirements.

I had an issue with the noice limiter the other day so unplugged the bins. I was really impressed with the 310's. I took out alot of the mid and they sounded great. Even in a marquee. if your not using bins then go for the bigger ones.

That,s ok but i am only commenting on the original post re small speakers and have taken notice of post re opinions on equipment ,as you quite well know i only give advice on gear that i have used and don,t make rash statements on equipment i have no first hand knowledge of,but your comment is taken on board.
