Looking to buy some powered 15" plus 1" to use as monitors but also for smaller hire outs as tops.
Anyone got an advice on what £200 will get me on the second hand market? Could spend more if that won't get me anything half decent but really would rather not! Cheers |

Buy these and a cheap amp. IIRC these have Truvox and 1425 Celestions in them

Okay well looks like 200 certainly isn't going to get me anything decent, like a I said, can spend more if need be tho. Maybe stretch to 400
Or I guess the other option is non powered since I do already have an amp for them, just not quite as plug and play, and dont really wana buy an ultradrive just to limit the things, but am still open to options here. Would certainly rather spend the extra if its something of a reputable brand which I can hire out and will last Cheers Edited by tcourtneyvincent - 27 November 2016 at 1:41pm |
