Electro-Voice EKX-15P 15-Inch Active Two-Way Speaker
They sound nice & do the job with enough volume for small-medium/small sized rooms combined with subs.
Its hard when it comes to buying disco speakers as most things below £600/speaker loose quality at peak-party, or not loud enough? Line array you need to spend over £1500/speaker as almost all are allot quieter than traditional design speakers, or can't push all the sound back very far (sounds bad past the dance floor were people socialise).
These speakers have a "clubby" sound the way they process sound (that i personally don't like), but clients who book small rooms do like the sound very much as they sound similar to my old RCF 715's, but can go louder keeping all the quality as the 715's just couldn't quite get there for some clients "peak-party" vibe, but the EKX do very well.
Summery: They do small-medium sized rooms combined with subs well, they are priced "midrange" so better quality & a bit louder than the budget models or Alto etc. but would not do bigger rooms as can't push the quality to the back of a ballroom like SRX can. These speakers are "bang on the money" as actually do what they say (don't use misleading spl/dB numbers), so perfect for small-medium sized rooms. Only 2 things I can have a grumble about is they are a bit heavy for the output but the build quality is excellent!!! as made to last, & the side handles are a bit low.
