Hi to everyone here at ASR,
First time poster and enthusiastic noob alert: I'm new to the forums and fresh out of the wrapper. I'd love to hear some opinions and advice that can help me with my upcoming A5 replacement.
I'm a "bedroom" DJ (or more accurately a living room DJ) mixing and mashing up various genres of house music for my own amusement, with a Pioneer DDJ1000 controller.
The speakers are pretty close to my decks and the room I'm in is approx 3m x 4m. I don't have any pretensions about playing to parties and I'm not producing music.
I do like to play at a volume I can feel (sorry neighbours) and like most people I absolutely loathe distortion and mushy sounds. I think I like a fuller sound than some people, and find what some people would describe as "good" sound a little bit thin. Not sure if that's very helpful? I live a long way from audio stores so "try before I buy" listening is quite challenging. I'm trying to narrow down a selection of active speakers with a max budget of GBP £600. I'm not unhappy with the A5's (they're damaged). What are good (better?) alternatives or stick with what I know?
I have a QAcoustics QB12 sub which was a bit of a mad choice (got an amazing deal on it) so an output for a sub is a requirement and bass frequencies can be well handled by that monster.
Really grateful for advice / opinions / pointers to relevant reviews / discussions I've missed.
Thanks in advance!
