All user reviews of 4/5 for the Yamaha Stagepas 500

Hello all.

1 / How long have you been using?
We use this sound for about 6 months, the only time in rehearsal for the song.

2 / What is special that you like most and least?
The +:
+ The power sufficient for a group Noisy-Pop drum / bass / guitar song.
You can not pass the song currently in, but maybe some samples soon. Ample.
+ + The output for adding additional powered speakers for a future possible returns.
+ + + Of course, the practical aspect of this sound! Table in a chamber, in the other cables. Perfect for space saving Really the compact!

The -:
--- No pan! For one voice, okay, but for many it is still annoying. For me this is the biggest downside of this sound, this is the first time I see a table without pan!
- An equation still limited to the price of the sound, we would have appreciated a medium para possibly facilitate the search history of the feedback equation against such slaughter without acute or severe depending on ^ ^.
-The reverb is super ugly honestly ^ ^ but hey, putting 1 or 2 grand max, it can be used while waiting for a real reverb ^ ^
- The speaker jacks plastic ... cheap to death, there is no incentive to take the foot in the cables too often ...
The fan-cooling a bit light for this power, I fear for the components to heavy use. But hey, I would put a neutral on this point, because do not forget that it's "compact"!

I add 2 points I would say "neutral"
_The Compress, yeah, nice, but hey, it looks like more of a "boost" that compress ... they could have a medium para instead, it would have been more useful ...
_The Button speech / music, yesh ok, but in the end it is always set to "music" ... ^ ^ it is supposed to cut the bass position mainly speech, indeed this is the case but still very light. Finally Panoramic mono inputs would have been more useful ^ ^

3 / Did you try many other models before buying it?
No, we jumped at the chance to € 500 because they had heard only good things about this model and we were in a hurry with a sound that finally we would hear the voice.

4 / How do you price / quality ratio?
The value for money always seems unfair (today anyway, everything is too expensive ...), it could still be cheaper saw the appearance of some cheap components and major limitations "art" of this sound .
From 780 € to 900 € new, I still find it unfair! "It's yamaha": Moui can be, but it's still relatively cheap the gear, see the "minus" above. (Sorry for this Anglicism I use a little too much in this post ^ ^)

5 / With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Ptet bin that yes, Mayhap qu'non ... I confess I do not know ... say that if we had time, we would probably have tested other systems, but I think we would still quite hesitant because of the strong point, the compactness of this model for our vehicles ^ ^. Despite the relatively large gaps (no pano, no medium, speaker terminals plastoc ...).
In the same circumstances (urgency of our research), we would probably jump at the chance again we had a great and serious seller (it will recognize if it goes through there thank you again to the passage). € 500 for a sound like that in a great state, yeah, it does. Moreover, it should be the price new, but it is only my opinion and my misunderstanding of the current prices of new ...

Conclusion:
I put a 7/10 because I think especially compared price new / Components that seems really exaggerated! But it's still "good" because really practical / compact is actually a very strong force is to admit it.

The Stagepas 500 is a portable PA system that comes with a mixer, amp and 2 separate speaker cabinets. The overall sound with this system is amazing for this price; you will get some really clean sounding deep bass, and crisp highs no matter what style of music you are playing or who is talking. The mixer has 4 microphone preamps and a 2 band EQ. I did want to see them include a 3 Band EQ at the least but I guess I will have to make due with 2 for now. This unit is very heavy to me, it weighs well over 50 pounds and that might not seem like a lot but if you are by yourself taking it to and from places that is more weight than you want to carry. The amp is a 500 watt amp, the mixer has several inputs; 4 XLR, 4 ¼, 2 ¼ and outputs 2 1/4 (Speaker), 2 1/4 , RCA Stereo.

These speakers are well made though and can handle some nicks and dings from getting them in and out of buildings. There is no microphone included with this system so you will need to have one or purchase one separately (I already had one so no need to purchase another).
The sound of this system is the only thing that makes me a happy that the I bought it, I dislike the fact that I get no 3 band EQ and I dislike the fact that there is no headphone output from the mixer/system. But I love the sound and how it projects across the room. The frequency response is great and the preamps are great as well. The price is affordable but I am thinking about upgrading to a different system soon. This is worth it just because of the sound you get, the mixer and specs are not that great but the speakers make it worth the money.

When I bought this pack sound, ultra-convenient to carry, I did the music festival with outdoor. And she kept mute (no no, there was not behind Philippe Katherine). I returned to the Service has done tests and found nothing abnormal. In fact, since I am careful not to have it in the red all the time. According to the guy cutting the SAV is a security.

And so I use it only in situations of small bar room type means, pubs, room less than 100 people. And that's fine. In general, I spend 3 or 4 microphones in voice, electronic drums and bass DI. All for the large rock that task. OK it lacks a subwoofer for bass but enough to have a sound neither too strong nor too rotten.
I Deputy small returns amplified via auxiliary outputs.

It happened to me on stage with a sound system pre-installed (some bar / Paris pun) not to use it as a return and it's not bad at all.
Finally I am also serves as a sound repetition in my home studio.

In conclusion: no magic, the 2X250W are there. You just pay attention to the levels (and the built-in limiter is my friend). The reverb is a little gadget but in the context of use, it makes the voice service. It's not a pro with that but there's a good amateur and the public does not complain.

I use it for several months and it is true that this is a good product
cà installs in 5 minutes, with the cable jack - jack

connected directly to the output of Kontrol S4, it looks really good

the mixer is super easy but it lacks an equalizer in order to adjust the bass, which at times are too

I had before the hk KUCAS and I must say that this is better quality with better fishing

the most:
- Super trnasportable
- Ease of use and installation
- In the multiple
- Out to attack the other active hp

months:
- No equa

I do it again without hesitation that choice

hello, the course pass 500 (I found it almost new ads 600 E) silent for a good compromise because I wanted something practical, good, and quickly rises. As in any compromise, there are pros and cons, pros, is that it's super fast set up, 15 minutes, I put the speakers in bags roulette (30 E 2 in the super market and the fact you have to buy the feet (60 pair Specials prs from home), so the cot practice was important for me, firstly because I am a woman, and I'm not very patient with stuff. Cot table is very simple .. I find rverb zero, then, I have a multiple effect, for power is ok but you do not sound to a room of 500 people as it is suggested, all fawn, pass a threshold, it takes more heavy stuff, pass the course is perfect for intermediate- the room of 300 400 people, here, I have an amp ac 60 for Rolan little cafs and is perfect for what I do (bossa duo trio and quartet) bye and bizz
