DeanoDJ Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Hey Guys,I'm new here, after a 20 year break from DJ work I've got the bug again and seriously looking at getting back in.Due to the fact I work in commercial radio I've a few offers to lately to do weddings etcI really need your advice on speakers (active) for wedding-style gigs. What do I need? What do you use/suggest?Wharfedale Titans any good?Should I look at 12 inch tops and get a sub? Or will 15inch actives be plenty?Thanks in advance for any help.Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I've used wharfedales in the past, not sure what model they were (2x15" tops, 2x18" subs passive)I'm assuming the Titans are acceptable quality wise. As far as sizing goes, really depends on how big the venue is etc. 2 15" actives should be enough for most gigs for a few hundred people. Plus weddings you don't need it so loud that everyone goes deaf. Hope this helps DJ DAZZLA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djvinnysyd Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Although they're a little pricey, check out the QSC K12s. In my opinion, they're perfect for weddings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabRat Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 EV's are the shit! I don't do weddings (family only, but that's too much for me) but the EV's have great bottom end without the need for a sub. Solid speakers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolDios Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 What's your budget for speakers mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanoDJ Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 OK thanks for the help, ended up going with EV's , the 15inch ZLX model which sound great.I've just been locked in to do 15 primary school discos across 2015, so will add a sub for those.Any suggestions?Would a 15 sub be pointless considering I'm running 15's in the tops?
