Rig help

So im new to the sound system crowd and am planing on building a rave rig with a phew mates who are chippies. I need advice on what speakers to build i want a standard rave rig, nothing too big at frist. I also need help with what comes after building the speakers (wiring, amps, crossovers etc.) I have a budget of around £1000

Somthing along these lines maybe

Nice Rig but you will have to provide a little more information. Like the number of people ,indoors , outdoors .Do you have the tools and know how to build the enclosure .$1000 is not a whole lot for a rig .but there are a lot of smart guys on here .Most important is plan out your rig thoroughly and enjoy your build

I don't follow currency symbols, but that is not USD! If that is Euros I think that is about $2500. If it is British lbs it should be about $3200. If you know where to save, and where to splurge, you can build a very nice rig with that kind of money!

However you are right that more info is required to give advice! Especially the size of audiences, but indoors vs outdoors would help as well!

Indoors and and its british money id like to a rig for an audience for around 150

i would go ES18 bph above your hogs. those 1850 are "ok" cabs but not the best at the bottom end or the kick end.
if your building it all your self and have no intentions of EVER taking it outside you could save a little by building it out of MDF but they will be very heavy once built.

you could build the 15" version of the hog and ES15 bph and cut down on size and weight and driver expence altogether as they should cover 150 quite easily. just dont short change yourself on driver choises. the hog drivers is where alot of your money will go so find what you need and then try to buy second hand to keep costs down.

you should just be able to do this fr a grand but you will then have nothing left of amps and DSP.

I would go full reflex system for 150 people, horns will be too loud for such small attendance venues.....

start with some thing basic, that you can learn with. Them upgrade as your events get bigger

Bee is right 150 isn't difficult to cover! If you use horn loaded stuff you need to look really closely at audience distances and dispersion/ coverage patterns. Reflex works fine in that range!

Just re-read your OP. build a single g-sub and a pair of 12+1 tops. Then on the upgrade build another g-sub. I can do 150 people with my 2x cubo15s and 2x X10s
