Question:

Can anyone tell me a decent cheap Active PA speaker?

I have ordered Peavey6 Mixer (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/p... and Shure58 Mic

I plan to use the speaker for just vocals and want to be heard over some unmiced drums in rooms smaller than 150 people.

I don't know anything about mixing the right power amp to the speakers and figure buying an active speaker will be easier, any recommendations?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You are on the right track with www.musiciansfriend.com They have a multitude of power amps and PA systems that are just right for vocals. I just got the new Musicians Friend catalog and looking through it I recommend the following item. Kustom PA package number 630542. This has a 200w power amp with 7 channels, 2 speakers with 12" subs and 4"x10" horns. Total price is $479. All you would need to do is hook your system up with the included cables and hook your mike and adjust to the level of the room until you reach clarity between you and the drums.
