Im having a big sweet sixteen party at a place and its a large room with maybe 60 people, what would be the loudest speaker or system I could find that doesnt kill my budget. I want to be able to hear it over the people and dont want to get a dj because my sisters are going to have sweet sixteens and it would be a much better investment to just get really good speakers. Any suggestions about a good product are welcome, and I dont want to have anyone just telling me to get a dj because its not what im asking for. Thank you all :)

You either going to need powered speakers, or a power amp to go with non-powered speakers. Either way, you're not going to get very far on $400.
You could get a pair of Behringer EUROLIVE B210D speakers that are powered for $400. But, they're only 10" speakers. If you're looking for a lot of bass, they aren't going to cut it alone. You would have to add a separate subwoofer to the system (and then things get a little complicated).
If you live near a major city, I would suggest that instead of buying you just rent the equipment. You could probably get everything you need for around $50 for one night (depending on where you live). Even if you throw 2 more parties, you're still way ahead. Just Google "Sound System Rental" near you and see what comes up. Tell 'em what you want to do and how big the room is. They should be able to quote you a system over the phone.
Good luck.

As this is a DJ system, this would fall under the non-existent âpro-audioâ category. Most home theater people will have no idea how to remedy this (for example the building your own crossover guy) I happen to run a pro-audio rental company, here is how they work: Most pro speakers are made to handle a certain range of sound best. Some handle higher tones best (Tweeters or horns) some middle tones best, some lower tones best (Subwoofers). To perform as well as they are intended to, each has to be sent only the sound they reproduce best. A crossover basically takes your signal that your mixer puts out, and splits it into the different frequencies. It sends the low notes to your subwoofers, your middle to the middle range speakers, and the high to the tweeters. Since you already know that you need a crossover and some amps, here is how to hook it up.
The output from your turntable mixer or CD player mixer (Usually 2 RCA plugs, or ¼â plugs) plugs into your crossover. Your crossover has 2 or more outputs for each channel. The low output on channel 1 goes to input 1 on your subwoofer amp. The low output on channel 2 goes to the channel 2 input on your subwoofer amp. Do the same for your main speakers. Channel 1 High output on the crossover goes to channel 1 input on your main speaker amp. And channel 2 high output on the crossover goes to your channel 2 input on your main speaker amp. Hook up your speakers to the amps as you usually do, and you got it. Now as far as getting a crossover, here are a few options:

Nice:

All will do the job. For DJ applications, crossing over at 80-200 HZ is the normal way to do it. See what sounds best.
I hope this is helpful.
