[QUOTE="Andre Aklian, post: 137260, member: 8746"] Re: Upgrading our PA System - 12s or 15s, and are subs necessary? That refers to delving too deep and caring too much about the finer points of high end, high quality equipment, audio equipment, guitars, amps, etc. to the point where it is not practically necessary and may give off a condescending tone to others. Compared to a Wine connoisseur who "sniffs the cork" to tell how high quality a certain bottle of wine may be. Here's another question I was thinking. When we have our money ready, my bandmates and I will be going to stores and listening to the speakers we have in mind to really compare the sound and make an informed decision. What's the best way to test the speakers out? I can record a Wave file of my band's live performance through our current mixer. Should I play that audio back through the speakers at higher volumes and see how it sounds, or will they play sample music? Would some places allow my band to bring in some gear, or use some store gear to simulate a live show and play a couple of songs to compare the sound of the setup? Dre [/QUOTE]
