We're going to have to do something with our booth amplifier. Yesterday it started acting up and lost a side. It is a cheap Radio Shack amplifier. Joshua, our sound tech ended up giving it a whack and it started working again.
The amplifier gets a feed from our Mackie mixing board and goes to a pair of small 8" speakers on either side of the booth window. Both the speakers and amplifier are part of our rental package from Joshua - so eventually as we replace our stuff they'll have to go anyway.
I can either go with powered speakers or an amplifier and eventually a pair of speakers. I don't really have a preference - except to conserve money. Obviously I wouldn't need a really powerful amplifier for the booth - or really too powerful a set of powered speakers - the sound booth isn't that large.
So - powered speakers or amplifier?
