I have been a long time reader but have never registered or ever posted anywhere. I do alot of reading . But this time i just could not find a definitive answer fo MY apecific needs/ application. So heres my question
We as a band( my 4 girks and myself including mom) are finally getting a pa system. Nothing fancy just enough for what we need. A pair of 12s and some 15s for subs.
I have the option of getting a BR cabinet or go with a bandpass cabinet. I need to know what will suit our needs
1. We are more a band than a dj. We offer dj services as a courtesy as we have the equipment and programs for it. My main concern is to sound good as a band ..dj is second
2. I want a tight punchy sound. Kick and bass along w perc running through system..keys and vocals as well.
3. Mainly top 40 and the occasional heavy synth patches and some sequences.
4 As far as dj..we just play what they want and nothing hard hitting again its a courtesy package we offer
5 i have an idea on the diferences of both sub box types but im just looking for a straight forward answer...i have read alot already and its mostly car audio.
5 Subs im looking at are the Alto ts215s powered sub(BR)
The other is a turbosound m15b (bandpass)
6. Why these 2? Simply put, Budget. The turbosound originally goes for 800 but is now 549 and the alto is 500
And im just trying to figure out what would be the beat choice for my application
All of ur responses are GREATLY appreciated as i am tired of looking
. Thanks!
