PA Loud Enough for Vocals?

[dgrizzly]

Have only owned 1 PA and that was about 10 years ago...

Does anyone know if this PA would be loud enough for vocals at practice volume?

• Carvin PA620 powered mixer (200 watts)
• Carvin 1540 speakers (15", 400 watts)

We play living room funk with no horns right now. Drummer understands dynamics (only slams hard when needed). Guitarist has a 12" Vox combo amp. I use a 210. And keys come out of another 12" combo amp. Basically, the volume is as low as possible while still playing with a drummer. I would say the level is "moderate".

We just want to be able to hear the vocals cleanly through the PA. 3 people could potentially be singing at the same time if that makes a difference.

With the speakers up on stands, you should have no problem.

Thanks guys. I appreciate your answers.. It certainly makes CL shopping a lot easier

You could probably use one 15 as a monitor and one out front. If you are purchasing, you could go with 12's.

Probably adequate, but personally I wouldn't want an amp with more headroom.
