    Stay away from the Mackie Thumps. I’m glad I asked around before purchasing…

    I went with 2x QSC K12s and couldn’t be happier.

    I actually have one of the B315D’s, and it has really great deep bass. It is pretty deep in the back and creates some pretty sweet bass The first one sounds like a great deal, but from the picture it looks small, like it wouldn’t be able to handle the power very well. Like some people have said above, it may have a ton of wattage but if it has terrible SBL output then its wasting a ton of watts. The fact that a 1000-watt speaker is only $177.00 is a little disconcerting (for me at least). That being said, I’ve never had one of em so i dont know

    Stay away from the “thump”. Very low spl! Buy Subs and 10″ top speakers instead. You get 3dB more bass if you put it on the floor. That means that 2 subs on the floor play like 4 subs in free space!

    I have been using Behringer b215d for aboutt 2 years now never had an issue.Cant complain for Price.I would say if your doing small parties 40 to 70 people youll be ok.Depending where you are you can get some deals.I paid 270 each with stand and Cable.

    yep, the Mackies… they rule… never had a problem, ever. Get carrier bags as well and you’re a one man music hit squad.
