Matty Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hello there. On eBay at the mo, theres a guy in Germany selling Switch-mode power amps for £99. They are only 250watts a side at 4 ohms. Im probably looking at running each side with a 1x12" cab. I was just wondering is this would be loud enough for Vocal only PA gigs. I currently have a 2x12" cab, but the weight is stupid, and the speakers are seriously inefficient (I used to have a Little Mark II, and often had it fully open just to be heard. But through a mates 1x10, we couldn't go above 3 on it!) So with efficient 4 ohm 12" speakers, is it going to be loud enough to gig?

bass_ferret Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 500 watts is plenty. Dont forget you are gonna need a pre-amp and frankly, at £99 a pop these amps are probably gonna suck - big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-bitch Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Get a pair of Mackie SRM 350's/450's for vocal only PA and they will last you years and you won't have to keep upgrading separate bits. You might as well burn £99 as bother buying it; if it's too good to be true, it probably isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
