I have 2 Yamaha DXR12s that I've been using with my AX8 as back speakers instead of a cabinet. I have a gig coming up where we'll have to use them as FOH. My dilemma is what can I use behind me that isn't going to cost me a bundle. My hard rig is a Mesa Boogie Mk V with a 1x12 open cabinet, but I don't want to use it (or just use the cabinet with the AX8)
So on the cheaper side would appear to be JBL 612 (or 610 or 615) or the ELX 112p. At least that way we've got a spare floor monitor when needed.
My questions are:
1. Are either of these two speakers worth buying to use with AX8 or as a FM?
2. What are other options do other members suggest, remembering cost vs use as this situation may occur only few times a year?
3. Any other powered speakers that are preferable than the ones mentioned?
I appreciate all suggestions.
