Thump Go

None. Monitors aren't for partying. If that's the purpose, and if you don't need studio level accuracy/flatness, just get a small 8" PA speaker and and small sub or a column PA. If your controller doesn't require mains power, then Alto Busker and Mackie Thump Go are cool options for total off-grid p

I own an Omnis-Duo and purchased a Mackie Thump Go setup specifically because I wanted a rig that was not dependent on any power, whatsoever. It has been so much fun to use, I’m super glad I got it. It’s a neat all-in-one.

I've bought the Mackie Thump Go for this purpose plus house/street parties with friends. I was more inclined for the Bose but didn't find the sound amazing for club style music, I feel it's better suited for vocals/live music. So my options changed to Mackie vs Everse 8. And then yeah, for this purp

My husband uses a Mackie Thump Go. We can plug his guitar/mic/pedalboard/looping station, and my bass into it and play together and sound pretty good. We play small venues with just that, and I have mic'ed it before for a larger venue with a full band. It's great, and the battery lasts a really long

This. I use to practice on monitors then wonder why things were so different when I was playing out. Currently using a single Mackie Thump Go 8 and headphones on the other ear. Doubles as a monitor when playing somewhere and the battery is good for a couple hours no problem. Sub $300 off Reverb used

Get a small PA system. Alto is usually a nice budget brand, with some battery options if you need mobility. A friend of mine got a TX412B and she's happy. For small parties I use one or two Mackie Thump Go. But I think if you don't need anything too crazy, you can get away with a Busker or 8" Alto s

I'd skip the JBL entirely. They sound nice, but you can't build a decent DJ system on that. Delay due to DSP, no pro connections, no mixer, etc. They are really meant for domestic/end-user only. I've got two Mackie Thump Go (bought 2y apart, so I'm clearly happy) and they are decent, have embedded 2

Didn't read in detail, but this has an easy answer. House party: JBL Partybox, as much as your budget allows or a pair to spread the sound. Or hi-fi/desk 2.1 systems. Monitors are for monitoring. Mostly flat, boring, directional, close range, etc. An 8" monitor is not an 8" speaker. Small PA is over

I have a Mixstream Pro and I love it. I also have a full denon set up (2x SC6000 and an x1850) and I enjoy playing on the Mixstream as much as my full set up. You definitely have fewer options for controls, but if this is a hobby, and you don't plan on trying to DJ for money, the Mixstream would be

If you're not concerned with accuracy, then you don't need to go with studio monitors, but not all of them are truly flat. I have the KRK 7" G4 and looking to add the 10 G4 subwoofer, but if I was just DJing I'd buy a pair of Mackie Thump Go plus their 8" sub. At least those would double up as porta
