Passive Speakers - Best Bang for Buck?
      29/09/11 12:18 PM
Hey guys trying to get some information on some passive speakers to buy for our school hall.

Currently we have 2 sets of speakers (2 power amps) which feed the front and the sides of the hall. Now having had zero input into this because it was here before I was at the school, I think it is overkill for the space and complicated. I really think we would be better off just having one power amp and a good set of speakers mounted at the front which will more than cover the area.

At the moment we have some speakers that are called "Community" which I have never heard of, but personally think the speakers don't sound great and we could do with some new ones. I have no idea of budget for the speakers but I am looking for best bang for buck, but they do not need to be audiophile quality.

I was thinking possible JBL, Peavey and something more budget like Phonic. Any suggestions greatly appreciated
