«  For voice and no more ... »

Published on 06/11/11 at 12:13
I sometimes use these speakers in a room equipped with six 802 Boses III + 2 sub 502B, "pushed" by Yamaha P4500 amps and drive by a processor bose PANARAY. The room is about 20mx35m.
Used at conferences, small concerts and galas dances.

what about this system.
If you are looking for what to do a concert, go your way, these speakers have no guts (114dB max SPL and performance of 91dB / W). The sub is pasty and without dynamic speakers and very aggressive sound that quickly you push a little.
Maximum level reached in the rooms around 84dB (A) before the sound becomes
unbearable.
In addition, the bandwidth measured at 10 meters is approximately 120Hz-12KHz (for a single filter 802 at the bottom) with accidents on the sacred stage. Largely insufficient for a correct reproduction of music ...

For if it is against to the conference, it does not work too bad, the voices go reasonably well and little coverage in some cases be very advantageous. They have the advantage of being relatively homogeneous coverage.

To me these forums are for voice or for a small group playing "acoustic" in a small place or outdoor area, or they will fare pretty well.

If, against one wants to make music and that we take into consideration the price, € 1100 the box, you can get much better, be it in quality or power.
For a little info out NEXO PS8 119dB continuous, 125dB and an Electrovoice SX300, for half of the power amp, and half the price on a SX300.

I note ~ 3 / 10 in general use for voice and Middle
