I use the AV40s as my practice speakers and I like them a lot.

Mine give good bass, however mine are the older version with the “Bass Boost” switch on the back. Apparently they’ve removed that in the newer ones.

So, in reference to my own experience with my AV40s, they are perfect little practice speakers and, in fact, I used to use them connected to my bedroom TV for movies and TV watching and they did very well at that too.

I guess my suggestion would be to try and find ones with the “Bass Boost”.

I don’t know where you’re shopping, but in my neck of the woods it’s $400 difference per top and the same per sub between EV ELX and the Yammys.

Add that up, and that’s $1600 bucks I’d rather have in my pocket.

Considering every other DJ in my town uses Behringer, my stuff still looks and sounds way better than the competition.

Don’t get me wrong, I do love the Yamaha brand though.

I recommend you purchase Phil’s “Learn to DJ fast” course on the site. He explains this concept very well.

I once went to a new years dance in a small town. The DJ was supposedly the “best in town”. He was playing nothing but nonstop Stars on 45 type megamixes from iTunes on his laptop. Occasionally he’d drop in an unmixed Top 40 track or country song in between (this was Western Canada). I found it laughable.

But the crowd was eating it up, so who am I to say anything?

PA speakers do not really lose their value as there’s not a whole lot newer systems would offer to make the old ones obsolete.
