any one had any experience with these? they keep popping up in my pa speaker hunt. Zac

thanks a lot for the replies, helped me out a lot Zac

so in theory then, could that speaker handle 500w if it was a live band?

Hi, Just a quick question if anyone can help, I'm looking at pa speakers and my knowledge of the subject isn't fantastic. i keep seeing the wattage described with two numbers for example: 300 Watts RMS continuous, 600 Watts program i have no idea what that means, is it 300 or 600? any help would be greatly appreciated. cheers Zac.

haha no problem, time to start raiding the back of the sofa

budgets undecided at the minute really, it was gonna be a case of seeing the sort of amount we'll need to spend then seeing if we can scrape it together

Thanks for taking the time to list all that for me, its much appreciated. so its gonna be quite a pricy endeavour but i was expecting as much to be honest, and like you say, its worth spending the money to get a decent sound. Thanks again. Zac

2 guitars, bass, bass drum, snare, vocals rock and pop covers band, so everything from guns n roses to duran duran, and usually to full, fairly big pubs, but we're looking to move on to bigger things, maybe some function stuff

think this is the right place for this, but due to recent events, my band has found its self with out a frontman, which is fine, I'm looking forward to finding a new 5th member. The major downside is that our frontman provided all our PA equipment. after looking online for a bit, I've come to the conclusion that i don't know what I'm looking for or what I'm looking at, if theres anyone out there who could give me a quick run down of what id need and maybe recommended brands (nothing to lavish, were only a pub band and all a bit skint) that would be fantastic. Cheers Zac.

the argument for Barefaced over everything else is becoming quite one sided, you're a persuasive bunch already trying to figure out where i could get the extra cash. The upside for the mbe212 was you seemed to get a lot of bang for your buck, but if i invest a bit more it seems like id be better off. Zac.

i have no idea what grunt is either but it seemed to sound right at the time i might look a bit more into the Barefaced compacts, from what I've heard they seem to be the dogs cojones, and they look the part as well, nicest looking cabs I've seen, thanks again for all the help

its funny you should mention Barefaced, I've just been looking at them, do you think the compact has enough grunt? i was looking at the 'super twelve' but its firmly out of my grasp in terms of price Zac.

Thanks for your answers, from what you said, i think my initial gut feeling for a GK rig wasn't far off, but i think ill still take the head and try some others out, no harm in that i suppose thanks again

Hi all, quick question for you all, I've always had combo amps but I've just bought a GK mb500, and I'm not quite sure what cab i should pair it with, I'm really no expert on this stuff, i had the mb212 in mind, but that was a shallow decision based purely on the fact that they would both say Gallien-Krueger on, that should give you a good indication of my knowledge on the subject anyway, I've waffled, any help would be massively appreciated, i don't wanna rush into buying one I'm not sure of. Cheers Zac.
