Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Help!!! beginner DIYer with special application very confused over driver choice

The reason "dance music" sounds better to your ear on the PA speakers is the opposite of why Dire Straits sounds WORSE on them. One is music.....one is not. Vocals, especially FEMALE vocals are very revealing and require good, accurate speakers to reproduce. On the other hand, dance music is electronic(do you REALLY know what it's SUPPOSED to sound like?) and the excentuated bass and treble fool your ears into thinking it's better. Its not better.
The reason your blowing tweeters is your underpowering them. Get a better amp. Not just a more powerfull amp........a better amp.
PS.....ditch the mixer. use it for PA use.......NOT home audio ok?
