Hi all,

I'm new here and looking for advice. I'm a dj from the uk and I'm looking to switch from a passive speaker mixer amp combo to array speakers and a digital mixer. I would be pulling my hair out with this if i wasnt already bald. Because of budget restraints I've narrowed it down to two systems one the ant b-twigg 12 (I can only afford 1 of these initially a second would be bought 4-6 weeks later) or 2 x neo accoustics LA10 arrays. Links are below any opinions / advice is appreciated.

B-TWIG column PA system is all you need to provide a rich, powerful sound in any kind of application. Ideal solution for Dj sets, live acoustic sets, live singing on a backing track. B-TWIG 12 is a wo

I meant to say the main use initially will be karaoke in a pub for around 50 - 60 people max
 
Neither are available here in the US, so it's hard to compare. Based on the links, they appear to be lower-end units and probably sound adequate at low-mid volumes, but many of these break up at higher ones. A lot is build quality, which just isn't there at these prices.

Another option might be the Behringer C200/C210 which are close in price.

LD Maui 5 sounds decent and is also near in price. JBL Eon One is another option.

Hi steve, thanks for the reply they are reletively basic models the b-twig is made by db technologies who have been around awhile and make some quality gear. Its more understanding the wattage and spl ratings vs 1 unit high powered or lower powered units but 2 of them. I'm just not sure on which is the best setup. I've heard the b-twig in person and its damn impressive. The LA10 i've seen a video of and again it looks and sounds decent. Hence the pulling out of the hair lol
 
I did look at the jbl eon one but would only be able to get 1 initially so wasn't sure if it would be powerful enough. Package wise the jbl eon one is better the way it packs away etc plus like db tech jbl is a known brand
 
Db Tech is a great brand .. I'm just not familiar with the B-Twig line.
 
Cuemar, if you have the resources, try to extend and buy the best gear you can afford. While it might sting a little initially, it will generally pay for itself better over the long run. Rule #1 is in effect.

Rule #1: You Get What You Pay For
Rule #2: The Best Is Just Barely Good Enough

If you're just starting out, we get it - we've all been there. From wherever you currently fit in the financial range, there is something that falls into the 'better' category. As you generate funds, you should then be able to purchase from the next level.
