[QUOTE="Caleb Dueck, post: 214447, member: 60"] As to not seeing in public - rigging is a big factor. Studio monitors aren't used due to SPL output, Danley and Fulcrum aren't as common due to form factor (not a line array), not sound quality. Your specific uses aren't the target market for a large-format line array, so it's no surprise you haven't seen them much. Also - sound quality isn't the key factor in what speakers are used in public events. For a keyboard - you'll need speakers that extend in frequency, but since it's not the main PA - you shouldn't need a sub. If they are also used as your full home stereo, then yes you'll need a sub. Most of the options above have more bass than 'normal', other than the floor wedges, as you don't want deep bass typically from a wedge. The type of speakers/subs that work best for home studio, vs live monitoring, vs live performance - are all different. The closest to 'does everything' and sounds amazing are probably one of the Danley speakers over TH118XL subwoofers, or the Fulcrum over TS221 subs. They will be very large and expensive for home use, and large and heavy for monitors, but will work for live performance use very well. Depending on what the rest of the system is, how well it's deployed, etc. [/QUOTE]
