Get some JBL 15's on stands.Originally posted by ShpiraSo came back last night...
Sven Vath was amazing...he played a god damn killer set...ended up going to that and came to at like 10 am in some whore house in south Amsterdam...no idea how I ended up there...friday was a bit of a blur got really drunk and visited several parties can't remember a whole lot to be honest hehe...saturday was probably the best day that I recall...started up in the nearest coffee shop and going from party to party...beautiful woman, beer and weed...finished the night by taking some shrooms and listening to an amazing elke kleijn set...sunday...i met a nice girl who worked at one of the coffee shops and ended up talking to her for like 6 hours...was supposed to meet her at some DnB party...but instead went for a steak and walked around red light district bars drinking and smoking...monday took it easy went to a coffee shop and took a taxi to airport....
All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon

yea, two 12's or 15's on stands, maybe a sub on the floor, depending on if you in an apt, asshole neighbors, etc. actually, fuck the neighbors, get the sub...haha"He's 40 and lives with his mom. She put poison in his oatmeal."

Re: mixing.........party speakers.
There's Mackie, and then there's everything else.
if you're wanting to rock, get the SRM450...
if you're wanting the best studio monitors made for the money, get HR824.
otherwise, the other stuff listed is just as average as everything else.

Re: mixing.........party speakers.
I'd go with the JBL self powered monitors. Same sound as the Mackies but a lot less cost. Plus you can get the new JBL's that have a 12" and a tweet and they are in a compact case. Very nice for those extra gigs you might get.Comment

Re: mixing.........party speakers.
Uh, no..... cheaper yes but sound wise it's not even close, especially when it comes to the studio reference monitors (HR824). On a different note, nice guest mix yesterday Jeff.... good stuff.Originally posted by jeffrey collins"only dead fish swim with the stream..." Malcolm Muggeridge

Re: mixing.........party speakers.
824's will blow jbls out of the water, but those are studio reference monitors and i was just mentioning speakers that you could use to mix, along with take them to a gig where you have to do your own sound. I'd never take $1000.00 monitors anywhere except my home.Comment

Re: mixing.........party speakers.
Mackies definately have the best sound quality but if your looking to travel with them the JBL powered 10s or 12s are the "standard" monitors that are flexable for several applications and easy to transport and set up anywhere. Just plug and play. And its not like they like shit. For the $ this sounds like the way to go for what u are needing them for. Unless you have the $ to burn and really want uber quality, then there is no other choice then Mackies.
