Hi Guys,

Throw away your old mixers, amplifiers and unpowered speakers. Save your money and pick up a couple of Mackie HR 824 Studio Monitor powered speakers. (About $1800. retail) They are small, about 10 inches by 12 inches, heavy for their size (34 pounds each) and DYNAMITE. They are rated at 560 watts burst power output - Enough to blow your socks off and might I add, nothing less than perfection. They are a must if you are doing serious mixing of your work. The day of "bigger is better" is a thing of the past. I gave a pair of Pioneer 15 inch, 5-way speakers (5 speakers in each speaker) to a thrift shop for these. I never knew how good music could sound until I got these.
