Share the sound with neighbors
Get some JBL 15's on stands.

Re: mixing.........party speakers.

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

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.

Yao knows what's up.

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.

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.

Re: mixing.........party speakers.

anybody used the mackie 824s for DJing and production? i am searching for the perfect monitor for dual use...

**geoffgulley** · January 8, 2006, 04:55:56 PM

Re: mixing.........party speakers.

I have the 824's in the studio for production work and have two jbl eon g2 10" speakers with the dj setup in the basement.... I don't do mobile stuff and anything bigger downstairs and I'd be deafer than I already am...

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.

Re: mixing.........party speakers.

There's you're answer Weizy...those mackies won't do both.

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.

Re: mixing.........party speakers.

I'm just looking to spend like $100-150 each for some 12s, and ideas ?

thanks !
