Buy Active Speakers
Shopping for powered PA speakers can be a tall order in some cases, so we made this process easier than ever for our customers. For example, some speakers are mountable to speaker stands with a top hat and others are not. Lots of extra information detailing the speaker in question is found below the pictures on the respective product page.
As active speakers feature a built-in amplifier unit to draw power, you can save yourself the expense of needing a separate, standalone power amplifier. The biggest plus from a technical perspective is that you are ensured the built-in amplifier can deliver the full capabilities of the speaker system in question, generating the appropriate power relative to the size of the speaker driver and crossover network. This will almost guarantee you are getting the best quality signal level possible for the dynamic range of the speaker.
Active systems can be connected directly to an audio mixer and many also feature direct microphone inputs and mix controls so each signal can be used independently. Some have a guitar input for compatible instruments too, this is very helpful for singer/songwriter-type performers or duos. Some models also feature Bluetooth connectivity which allows you to wirelessly play your own music through the active speaker via a smart device.
Bluetooth Active PA Speakers
Bluetooth-powered PA speakers offers convenience and an easy solution for playing your music at volume using existing audio files or directly from a streaming service. You're almost certain to find the best budget active PA speakers here, our ever-popular Vonyx and Fenton speaker systems being the perfect choice for beginner DJs and parties. Features include Bluetooth and in some cases a built-in LED light show that can react to the tempo of your music, flashing in time with rhythms.
You can daisy chain signal passthrough to add additional speaker units to your setup line should you wish. You can also add an active subwoofer to the line if required to handle low-end frequencies, this allows the use of smaller sized main speakers as they won't be handling the heavier bass signal. The main speakers then effectively only deal with mid and high frequencies, taking the stress off of the inbuilt amplifier from needing to supply the higher current required for bass reproduction.
As mentioned, Active Systems cut the need for an external amplifier out of the equation and the powerful audio devices are great for a wide variety of functions and events. Active cabinets link directly to a mixing console and as a result, are now the most popular speakers on the market thanks to the simplicity of their plug and play design.
Powered PA speakers are a popular choice of speakers for mobile DJs, event hosts and functions. Built-in amplification allows the speaker to be connected to mixers and sound sources such as DJ Controllers directly, the speaker is a diverse and versatile piece of audio equipment.
