Question What do you think of my Amps (New Here)

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a Peavey Tour 700 head, AG/K 4x10 and a Peavey 1x15, Is that set-up load enough for some 300-400 outdoor or indoor gigs without being mic'ed

Hi and welcome to the TB.

700 watts at 4 Ohms should be plenty loud for a 300-400 person indoor situation, and you should still be OK outdoors as well, (but sound really does get eaten up oustide, so it might not "feel" as loud to you outdoors.)

Get ready for a barrage of comments telling you that 4x10 plus 1x15 is a bad combination. (Many feel that unless the cabs & drivers are precisely matched to do that job, that you'd be better off with two 4x10s)

So, 700 watts should be fine... maybe just swap out the 1x15 for another 4x10 and see if that gives you a bit more presence outdoors.

Welcome! Yeah, another 4x10 may be a little louder, but the reason I would get another 410 is because I am shallow and like my cabs to match, speaker size and brand lol. But your setup is fine as is. TB is a great place to learn and ask questions.
