I do about 12 gigs a year. From straight dj wedding s and events to karaoke gigs to acoustic weddings with vocals to background music acoustic guitar. These speakers are super for the dollar. Can't believe i haven't fried them yet have a Yamaha 512 amp and run over half volume they sound great loud or soft. I pair with peavey pr15 for large events but they hold there own and really help on highs and midrang.
