I'm looking for a PA set up for various jazz band configurations and events. band configurations range from duo to quintet and then will be doing mini big band (10 piece) as well.
We'd only really need it for weddings and bigger corporate events, and playing outside. We were recommended the Bose L1 but I'm not convinced by column systems and would rather go with two tops. Also need mixer recommendations!
As an example of an event we're doing, we have a quartet consisting of vocals, drums, acoustic bass and guitar that will be playing outside at a large corporate event (probs 1000 ish people but dont need to fill the whole event with music).
I'll admit that my knowledge is pretty limited when it comes to this sort of thing so any advice is greatly appreciated. atm our budget is £1,000-£1,500 (up to about $2,000). Many thanks in advance
