If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

Please, what is the "pas amp"? brand and model?
are you talking about pascal modules? or the sanway lg copies?
Also, I don't find any info on marvin amplifiers on the net, i just find guitar amps

I understand "proper english" but sometimes "internet english" is just a bit confusing

Every so often CPC do a deal on something that sounds 'too good to be true'.

Years ago I went through a stage of getting loads of smallish outdoor PA work (think school fete type of thing) and needed some small speakers that were mainly for announcements with a little background music; I wanted some that sounded better than your standard PA horn and cheap.

CPC had on their clearance brochure some DAP 10" + 1 for £55.00 per pair, they had a proper comp driver/crossover (not piezo), wooden trapezoid cabinets and sounded Ok. I purchased 4 pairs; they have served me very well paying for themselves many times over.
 
2 of the pairs were eventually sold on Ebay for more than I paid for them, two got damaged and rendered as spare parts (one fell out of the back of the van, another got dropped from a fair height), the last pair I still have and are still going strong, they will also shortly be going on ebay along the parts from the two damaged ones....

So, all in all I had my monies worth out of the £220 they originally cost me!!

Normally I dont read the catalogue they send me, this time I flicked through (needed a load of connectors and wiring to sort the lighting rig out) and these caught my eye. Glad that I actually posted rather than lurking and has been said, im sure to get my money back a year or so down the line.
I have now retired my heavy old 'unknown' amp now as having gone through its guts again... its a POS LOL
