... I actually had my speaker stands arrive!!

Whilst I won't divulge into the ins and outs of what happened - lets just say that I've been seriously messed about when getting a decent unbroken set of speaker stands.

One of the knobs to tighten the tripod legs is smashed, but there's a replacement on the way (apparently).

Here's a picture I took today in our back garden, you'll see the speakers I use to do discos with

Fantastic! Now you can throw me free disco parties!

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #2 on:** June 17, 2009, 00:42:25 »

Haha I'd need some hefty speakers to make sure it's loud enough

WOW that is a bit overkill

Overkill? Why is that? Those speakers are not large by far - not for disco use anyway

Inside or outside if it is in your house than the

might say something about the noise , Ive had bad experiances with the police and speakers

Hi,

They are 200W each speaker, so 400w in total. They have 15" bass drivers and a 1 1/2" compression driver. They are loud when you turn it up

I didn't have them plugged in yesterday, I just wanted to make sure they were ok on the speaker stands

Ballast - I certainly will when I get another gig come through

Nice, are they for your car or are they used for discos and such?

Firestar - Hang on I'll ask my bank manager if he takes it....

Ohh right, but are they proper disco speakers, or is it more a hifi system?

J3nsen · « **Reply #21 on:** June 18, 2009, 18:18:41 »

hifi system

Captain Spencer · « **Reply #22 on:** June 18, 2009, 18:22:16 »

Quote from: J3nsen on June 18, 2009, 18:18:41

hifi system

Ahh I see

However, the only difference with my speakers to yours is that even though yours have ah igher wattage, the I use for the disco have a higher SPL and "throw" on them

They look like they could pack a punch though and they're 3-way too, so they should sound excellent!
