Nice i have a ion total pa max which i had for about 7 years now with no problems until now. I was thinking about buying this speaker. I saw it at my local sams club for 160$ but i wasnt sure if the audio would be good or not. Because i never heard about this brand so i bought a ion total pa ultimate for 180$. The sound quality is absolutely insane for the price.

I am just spit balling here...but I would venture to say that they are made by the same company. They are sooo similar in design
@jonatantorres-mangan6578Ай бұрын
so you can't plug in an XLR cord into the output and plug it into the other speaker to get sound out of both if you have a mic plugged in?

I haven't tried that yet. I'm not sure if it's just "pass through" audio or combines the sinal from the internal mixer

I've been DJing with these speakers for a couple months now, over wired connection of course using a 20ft balanced xlr to connect them it sounds great and they get loud enough that i've been asked to turn down the music, the bass is super good on them so good that i often only turn the bass boost on one of them, the lights are a nice addition too though they get out of sync occasionally (nobody tends to notice though), the bluetooth is not great considering that the mic inputs dont go to the other speaker but i did do a wedding ceremony with them connected over the TWS on each side of the room and it worked well enough if i were to do it again i would definitely get a sound board to run the mic through to the other one (it was a metal building so you could barely tell it only came from one speaker) overall they are a great low cost of entry speaker, these would also be great to for a home movie theater and would probably sound better than most sound bar and sub kits you can get for the same price

Good to know that they are holding up well. I have yet to push them like that. I definitely think using a central mixer for sources, mics, external Bluetooth receiver etc. Is the way to go for best results.

@@WalkTheSkies The Behringer DDM 4000 that I'm showing in the video is my pick for a DJ situation. It's all digital, has a ton of effects and has balanced XLR outputs. They don't make them anymore and they can range anywhere from $200-$500 (Used or New Old Stock). I've picked up 4 of them throughout the years when I find them at a good price. I literally leave one on all day everyday...for 10+ years so they hold up well.

I'm going to look for a used DDM4000, but I wanted to know if I could connect 4 of the Monster X6

Yes you will hook up L and Right channels off the mixer and then chain additional speakers off of those

The tripods could cost 100$ Included and great for outdoor situations BBQs. Etc The battery situat😮ion is not that big a deal considering thats the first thing to go and is expensive I got 2 and they are alot easier to set up than crown amps ,mixing board and outboard gear!! The only fallback for me is the wired microphone!! For a pa system wireless is a must!! All in alll the bass boost is awesome and i give them a thumbs up! Now i just need a inverter for the truck that can orovide the wattage needed!!

Can you treat these speakers as if they're just powered speakers and connect a mixer with effects to get to a desired results? Run the mixer L and R channels to two of these or L and R to mono channel in just one speaker?
@flhousemusic

Yes. The mono situation would require a y adaptor at the mixer unless the mixer is mono switchable

Yeah i had this issue on one of my ion total pa ultimates and it kept turning off and hitting super hard on the back of the amp because you have to have the volume on your phone turned up all the way for these speakers and adjust with the knob on the back

Do you know the rms power of the Speakers, Because I know that they are 600 watts, but I don't know if is peek or rms power

RMS is not given in the manual. Max SPL is around 110db. It's not a reliable theory, but I always assume RMS power to be about half the rated max power.

Yep just holding down the light mode for 2 seconds shuts them off. There has been alot of negative feedback about them timing out and shutting down after about 20 min. I've found the best work around is just to twist the volume one notch. They come back to life with all settings saved. (Rather than resetting the power switch and starting over)

dude why do you care about stereo these are not for watching movies. listen this is not concert equipment these are $200 party speakers and serve that purpose well.
