ALTO TX310 350W Powered DJ Speakers, PA System with 10" Woofer for Mobile DJ and Musicians, Small Venues, Ceremonies and Sports Events

1 - Other Bad Reviews: I'm would recommend ignoring some of the bad reviews about sound quality and blown speakers. These are budget speakers... not substitutes for QSC and EV speakers that cost twice as much if not more. 2 - Speaker Usage: I got the 15" speaker! I used just one as the main monitor for band in a 100 seat hotel conference room. Three mics, two keyboards, bass guitar and canon. Had a separate speaker as a floor monitor. But it did the job just fine. P.S. Would recommend just getting a second speaker and or/sub woofer for these smaller events for a fuller sound. 3 - Blown Speakers: The people blowing speakers are probably using them as if they are 2000 watt 15" speakers. Also if playing tracks where you are not aware of the frequencies, not applying EQ is probably what is blowing them. These are probably not the speakers to try to thumb the kick and bass with without a subwoofer. I have never had a problem with live sound with this speaker. 4. Sound Quality: Again only being 700 watt speakers and half the price of some competitors, what can you expect? Don't get me wrong, the sound is very good in these speakers. For the price it's great. Obviously the QSC and EV speakers sound much better. The only pitfall would be this: The EQ is a little odd in the speaker. They have an EQ button but it just boosts the high and low ends. Not very useful. Don't know many time's where you would want the highs boosted along with the lows. If you wanted lows boosted a subwoofer is probably the way to go. But for anything with vocals, the EQ button is useless to me. I wish it had EQ nobs. 5 - Size and Weight: Pretty light weight for the size. The 15" is pretty bulky the shape is little odd. But that's not very important for me. Overall: Excellent for there price. Great standalone speaker for live sound at smaller events. Would make an excellent stage monitor. Plan on getting a second pair and a subwoofer. Don't compare to speakers that cost twice or more of the price.

I’m a touring sound man, with over 40 years of mixing experience. Even though I'm trying to retire, I still do local shows with friends. I even decided to recommission some parts of an old sound system I owned to do a small show here and there. I didn't have any good stage monitors... but for the occasional show, I didn't want to spend a lot of money getting some. There are plenty of good self-powered cabinets out there if you want to spend $600 apiece or more. Not interested. A friend has some Behringer B212Ds, which I've borrowed a few times. I thought this is the way I'd go but they just didn't have a great natural sound... no real low end and I had to crank the high tone controls just so they'd sound "normal." But there aren't a lot of cabinets that compete with them on price... until I saw a review of the Alto TX312s. I thought I'd give them a try. WOW! They just don't "sound great for the price," they sound GREAT!!! Of course, I got out my test audio setup to put them through their paces. I turned off their "contour" switch and found I might have to add just a bit of EQ to fill out the bottom and the top. But then I did something that I never do... I turned ON the "contour" switch. And this added EXACTLY what I had added on the graph to make them sound good. Here's my take on these: 1. High quality build- These DO NOT feel cheap. A solid thick plastic case construction with a full metal grille. 2. Simple inputs- A combo TRS / XLR input jack, a mic / line sensitivity switch and a level control. That all I would ever want. I don't need broad-band tone controls on a speaker... if I'm doing anything, I'll do it on a graphic EQ or the console. 3. Indicator lights- Again, simple. Power and a signal present light that turns red if you hit it so hard as to engage its protection circuitry. But in trying to test for the red threshold... O-M-G, these things were blasting! 4. Size and weight- Although not as small as some, definitely manageable and fairly light. 5. Other plusses- A fan for cooling, a pass-through XLR output, easy to deal with handles and a pole-mount hole (with a safety bolt). There's even a ground-lift switch if you have any AC issues. And oh yes... the cost. WOW! IMHO, this is hands-down the best value in a powered speaker. Sounds great, easy to deal with, simple operation, loud as heck... and VERY reasonably priced. I'm hoping they do well on the gig but confidence is high. NOW I'm thinking of getting a couple of the TX315s for the MAIN P. A. Yikes!

GREAT quality, exceeded my expectations and delivery was timely

Dudaba sobre la compra pero funciona perfecta para eventos pequeños, sonido nítido y profesional. La usé junto con una bocina de 15” y no notabas diferencia en potencia y nitidez.

Wow its really Great, looks small but the Sound is big, best to buy actually im using this for church its perfect

I was looking for a particular powered sub-woofer for a long time. I didn't wanna spend a fortune on it !!!!! Moreover, because I am aging, I was looking for a light enough portable unit, not too heavy, professionally good looking, with enough good electro-acoustic parameters to full-fill my personal needs and technical requirements !!!! Thanks to this one, fantastic, original American Company from Rhode Island State called > "Alto" <, I just became an owner of their subwoofer model TX12S. >> This model full-fills all my theoretical technical requirements on paper !!!! I know, that they are so many other, much better sub-woofer models available these days on the market, but most of them ..... they are too heavy for me, they are too big for me or they are even acoustically unnecessarily too powerful. I did NOT tried my Alto TX12S yet so far, but I am somehow very positive about my audio-visual "engineer's instinct" about the good output and quality of this future test. So .... I will write another words of my personal opinion about this TX12S model, right after my practical testing is gonna be done. Thank you. :o))

Works great with our Yamaha DTxplorer drum set
