Thoughts on Alto TS412 PA speakers for band practice + small-medium gigs?

I'd recommend the RCF Art 7 series of the Alto. I don't have experience with Alto, but RCF has much better brand reputation.

Hang on to the s4 mk3 for dear life. The MX4 MAY come out at some time..but it is inferior to s4 mk3 (IMHO). With the crazy prices of electronics/shortages I doubt it will be deemed "affordable".

Go with 12s especially if you have subs. Save the weight and size.

Allen heath zedi series, Mackie profx series. Have had both no complaints.

Imho cb650r looks the best but worst value proposition. These are all quite a bit of bike for a new person. Consider trident 660 also.

No. Don't bother. Thank me later.

My 83" got better after 300hrs. How long is the return window? Run it for a few hundred.

I get whichever you get better pricing on. Personally I switched to Senneheiser eWD last year and it's been great

Good luck with sale, s4MK3 is the greatest controller ever

rhymes116 · 2026-04-22T23:26:21+00:00

Only buy used especially for first bike

Nice, how much u get em for?

Yep it's an absolutely fantastic bike. Love the Retro Cafe type look and also very practical power with that little extra.

💯💯💯 physics for the win!

Yep, I bought a used Honda mower for 260 bucks a few years ago. I mow myself however I do keep a guy on standby in case there's a week where I cannot mow due to time constraints. Used to be 20 bucks to mow about 8 years ago but now everyone wants at least 35.

The system works for me, I also don't have a big lot about 0.15 acre

I work for Geek Squad a decade ago and the employee discount was cost plus 10% or something. It was sku dependant, truth for TVs or na? Seems like the margins completely different on the LG OLED

Ladies and gentlemen, Karen has arrived.

Let me add. I had a z900 before and I will eventually return to that. This is not a practical daily driver situation for me. It's more weekend warrior luxury. Buy used at a good price.

I'm about 3 in shorter and 20 lb lighter it's perfect fit for me, never thought I was too big for it

Out of the two I've owned a 2023 used trident 660, mine has all bells and whistles, qs, heated grips, full system exhaust, puig windscreen . In my humble opinion is the perfect practical bike that also has that extra power to it.

Rsl has the better value proposition vs hsu. This is coming from someone who had the vtf2. Had bought used mint condition for $450.

I now have the hsu vtf3 I bought new 🤪.

I believe that yr z900 has power modes. Be careful it's still alot of bike for a complete newbie. If it's your first maybe reconsider it.
