Great buy totally satisfied with the product I have not had it long so I will post an update if something new happens. But like ive said if your a DJ or a band you can rock small venues and supply great sound for mid venues as well I cannot dare crank it up loud enough in my house without worrying if the chandelier is shaking so bad the crystals are falling...no doubt its a good to very good system If your a pro youd find a use for it but its got good sound for what its needed for. The speakers will rock a house party very well, back yards very well, churches oh yeah, bars and lounges to small to mid size oh yeah......I play a with a band that has heavy drums playing with a good amount to the bass kick so we would need a coupld of subs and a amp but that would be it.
Sound
Great sound from the two JBL 2 way 15 inch loudspeakers, the powered amp from Berhringer allows your to shape the sound coming from the mics or as i have done feed my laptop into a channell and I can make it seem like its being played from a stadium ect. The boost from the speakers from the mic gains are very clear. When turned on very low white noise which is a plus. I run my Fender Jazz bass and those JBL's bush out the bottom pretty good for loudspeakers.
Features
Great products Berhinger 10 channell powered mixer with 1200 watts that shoots 300 each way to those 250 watt 15inch loudspeakers plenty of power for small and mid venues. Speakers came with their poles and I got the 3 mic stands and mics and cords with an additional 3 mics and stands. Makes for great Karioke with the voice cancelling mode when playing through your cd player. This is also great for DJ'ing the Mics sound great although I was worried about the quality but these guys picked out some great parts for this system at a very reasonalbe price. Those fender type packages are a total waste of time and money. This for the buck is way more powerful and professional those packaged in a case bundles for 800 bucks are for luncheon events.
Ease of Use
Very easy set up I was off and running in 20 minutes experiencing the different options on the mixer. The connections were east with the Neutric Speakon cables. The manual (I didnt read at first) is very helpful I've found hehe...its very clear and insightful and lets you get to working it really quick, I pick up things like this quick so it was way easy for me.
Quality
The Mixer is a hard type of plastic but its very convenient, nothing was cheap here mostly everything felt of pro quality. The Mics XLR cables were a bit on the cheap side as one was not working when it arrived due to a damaged cord end. Very good quality not cheap wall rattling sound from the speakers I HAVE to turn this baby down cause man its been Christmas around here since. So singing through it is wonderful I will add some sub woofers to this that I will buy another amp for and boy am I off to the races with sound.
Value
You dont get value like this for the buck this unit is priced at over 1,400 bucks and I came out 300 bucks cheaper. Thats the price of the sub I want. Hmmmm. Great value for the buck its pieced together by these very easy folks from zzounds. The system is of great quality. You have a small to midsize church this is for you, you are a DJ this is the system for you, you love to sing along, you'll be on Star Search or better yet your own American Idol at home. Your a speaker on the road....Oh yeah this is you...Im in love wouldnt give it up unless it came with more power and a sub.
Manufacturer Support
Havnet had to use them as this is my second purchase.
The Wow Factor
Man it was totally Christmas in May when it arrived. I live in MD. so zzounds is located in NJ. UPS ground shipping in 2days....but no only the mics came the speakers,mixers and stands came from Nev...across the whole danged country..yikes....but it was well intact and plays great JBL's are sexy the system looks great for any first timer on a system but the quality is there EASY! My wife and kids always are around when Im praticing for my gigs. I was going to go for the 2,500 package but I believe were in a recession I think so that wouldnt have made sense. Although I dream hard all I need is a sub woofer for my band and were on the road.
