PA's...

[Kenneth]

Hello, I get the feeling I've asked this questions before, but, can anyone find me a decent PA system (that is to say 2 speakers and a head unit?) for under £400?

Just for a band using 2 acoustic guitars and a drumkit/cajon...

I like that Orange make but dayuumn they are expensive...

See link below, Peavey system for £429, just over budget.

Yamaha system at £399, this has £100 off

If you are wanting a decent system then buy a second hand passive system.
Then at least you can build on it, upgrade gradually and if something breaks then its not a major hardship to replace.

Buying a new small PA isnt going to hold its money whatsoever and will not make a very good job of doing the vocals or the acoustics (im assuming) you will be thinking of putting through it.

Look on ebay for a separates system of around 300watts/side or so and go for something with not less than 12" main drivers in them, anything smaller will sound thin at volume.

If you are patient, you will find a bargain.

Behringer are amazing Jeid

Clearly stay away from Behringer...can anyone suggest good makes?

Absolutely nothing wrong with Behringer mixers, they do a good job at a great price.
Of course he could go for this Allen & Heath mixer at £4,862.30 but it might be a tad over budget!
