Mackie SRM450 -- Best Price; Great Review

Quality PA speakers carry so much weight when it comes to the overall evaluation of your live sound. Pair a quality power mixer with substandard speakers and all you have is substandard. You cannot do a quality job of reproducing a well-manufactured audio signal with inferior speakers.

Increasing numbers of PA speakers today are self-powered, offering plug-n-play convenience with sufficient power and audio refining tools for most small to medium sized venues. While the technology becomes more commonplace, reputable manufacturers like Mackie have set to making it just right.

The Mackie SRM450 Active monitor prefers to be known as a monitor and not a speaker. It's a fair insistence as these monitors feature unprecedented fidelity in a live loudspeaker. Each and every spot across the entire spectrum is reproduced beautifully at any volume. This is made possible by 400 watts of amazing sonic clarity channeled into two robust drivers, a 12" cone woofer and a 1.75" tweeter. The 450's specially designed wave-guiding enclosure promotes wide-dispersion sound coverage that minimizes the limitations of speaker location.

The SRM450 self-powered loudspeaker also sports perfectly matched bi-amped internal power for consistently optimum volume and fidelity at and level. Advanced circuit protection technology is included as well as is thermal shutdown. Parallel passive XLR line throughs allow the connection of additional speaker cabs as required. Further, each cab is designed for lying on its side as a wedge monitor should that be the role you have in mind for it. While it is designed for plug-in and go use, if you need external mixers or EQs they can be plugged in easily.

The Mackie SRM450 is a godsend for anyone from public speakers to small-outfit groups playing mid-sized venues. It combines ease of set up, top-quality fidelity and reliable performance in a durable cabinet. If you're looking for better quality and more reliability in your live sound take a long look at one or more of the SRM450s.
