Going active, pro audio speaker suggestions?

[I'mPoor:(]

So I jumped on the Q4-90 already and the SQ-2200 on monday.

Now I need to some pro audio tweeters and mid range drivers for going active.

I prefer Soft Dome tweets. I have a $200 budget for the mids/highs. I was looking at a lot of the Dayton Audio stuff and i'm not sure what mids. I want at least 2-4 tweets - Final load of 2-4ohms per channel on channel 1 and 2. Then 4 Mid range woofers 6.5inch (2 per channel) 100hz-4Khz - 2ohms final load per channel on channel 3 & 4.

Thanks bois.

pro audio doesn't use the same types of tweeters as car or home - because the solution to more output isn't more tweeters but higher efficiency and higher power handing horn tweeters. tweeter arrays, 2-4 per side sound poor because of phase interference between them as a result of different arrival times due to different path lengths.

B&C makes excellent pro audio speakers and tweeters but the woofers are out of your budget.

where are you mounting them? what depth do you have? with pro audio and high sensitivity, don't get hung up on needing low impedance drivers. a 3dB in sensitivity increase is like doubling power input.

Eminence Alpha-6C 6" Midrange 4 Ohm

Eminence Beta-6A 6-1/2" High Power Midbass Midrange Woofer Speaker

pro audio tweeters will be horn type.

Selenium ST300-SLF Super Tweeter Aluminum Housing 8 Ohm

start browsing and comparing your budget with the various options.

The SQ PA mids and supertweeters would do the job quite well. You only need 2 tweeters per 4 mids....

I've also used the PE PA6.5's, eminence, and selenium. Those are also good budget options.
