Ah that i am aware of, but as this forum is visited by bands who use PA's alot and that I thought that in music production would be studio based! Sorry if i'm in the wrong place)

I'm looking to buy soon so need some feed back!

Thanks for your reply Savman!

I've owned a few HK rigs, always did the job and sounded well at a reasonably ok price. Good bang for buck.

Just spoke to a mate of mine and he reckons that HK wont do it for a DJ but its fine for a band!

He reckons i look at JBL or DAS!

2 cents please!

Yeesh. I'd love to know what that means. :rolleyes:

I'm a JBL user myself and I'd recommend staying away from any of their entry level systems (namely JRX and EON). All other stuff is decent though.

DAS - not one I'd recommend because I associate it with Maplins but as I've never used it in anger I won't offer an uneducated view on it's quality. Safe to say, I don't think I'd buy one personally.

If you run any PA into constant clipping, you will blow sh*t up. Sounds like your 'mate' didn't have enough rig for the gig.

Ah righty oh so! I'll go price a HK rig and let you know how it goes!

I play in band and we use a HK Actor series p.a. probably a bit big for a dj but they have loads of different size p.a's, excellent sound quality
