my speakers peak is 1000w (250 continuous) so whatever I can do to get the maximum potential out of them without fear of damaging them. If i go stereo I either have a choice of 500w at 8ohm or 700w at 4ohm correct? However, am i right to say that If I drive one channel I can daisy chain both...

Completely new to PA/live sound so i could use some help here.... I plan on purchasing the QSC GX5 power amp and 2 Electro Voice ELX 112 speakers for my PA. what is the best way to configure the set up? I'm confused with the ohmage and exactly how a power amplifier works. The QSC GX5...

is there like a chat room you two could go and argue? appreciate the help but this is a little silly....ANYWAY is there anything i can buy that tells me whether or not I'm clipping my amp or sending to much signal to my speakers? I've seen the red light thing on some dj mixers i think...

OK well thanks everybody i think ive got a much better idea of things. if you can't tell ive been changing my mind every 5 minutes it seems. For a mixer, im going to go with the yamaha MG series. I've heard good things from series and for my purposes it should do just fine. Now for speakers...

thanks for all the input everybody, clearly i need the help here haha Anyone know the exact differences between the crown xti and xls series? These specs confuse me... And Ive definitely decided to use 12's now after doing further research on it. Either the Yamaha s112's, C112V, or...

Cheaper. I'd run each amp bridged at 1100w to get the most out of the speakers (id just be careful not to blow them) Looking at the other amps it would cost more for a single more powerful amp to run both speakers

After much thinking, what do you guys have to say about this setup Get 2 of these for each main [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] 2x Yamaha S115v's mains and this mixer [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] For mics ill prob get a few Shure SM58's and 57's for the horns. I'll add...

Well my original plan with either of those two setups was to eventually add a more powerful amp or two to system to power the speakers then use the powered mixer to run two monitors. My only concern is that if I go with the S115v's will I be underpowering them with the 500watt amps in the...

In the next few weeks I'm going to purchase a PA system for my Ska band. So far we're a 7 piece band - Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, bass, guitar, drums and vocals. My question revolves around what exactly I should be looking for and how much power I will need to supply 6 mics (3 horn players, 1...
