DJ speaker questions?

Q. Looking into buying some Speakers for small weddings,parties, and school dances. Is the Harbinger HA120 system strong enough and good enough to do justice to my mix? Is 120 watts enough power for a large gymnasium?


Answer
Absolutely not......

For a gym you need a pair of subwoofer speakers and another pair of full range speakers....

Subs.....

Figure about 2000 watts on up.... Really - No kidding....

What speakers (and microphone) are best to use with a laptop to dj?

I will be dj'ing my friend's wedding with my laptop and mp3 songs. I have done some church dances before, but after spending $200 on speakers that I was told would cover the area (small gymnasium), we ended up having to place the p.a. system microphone near one of the speakers to hear the music over the crowd.

I can't invest a thousand bucks into speakers, but I would like to get some decent ones that will work with a computer. Help!



Answer
There's not much choice for you. To do it right, you'll need a PA system to cover sound in a hall. You'll need PA speakers, amplifier and mixer or even a combo unit if your on a very tight budget.. You can find packages available at a discount at most major music shops.

Here's some examples....

The bare minimum.. for small rooms...

Much better, will fill a medium sized room & is expandable and not too expensive...
