Live music: A short guide to speakers

As a world-famous DJ, Haidak has learned so many valuable lessons about the job. Many of these lessons are quite technical, and he relishes in the details of it all. On that note, Haidak has come out with a blog, which will also serve as a short guide to DJs and performers looking for the perfect speakers for their gigs.

Now, before anything, Haidak explains that selecting the right speakers depends on several factors. For this blog, the speakers will be for a large crowd.

JBL EON ONE

The JBL EON ONE is a speaker perfect for formal events. These events include birthdays, graduations, or a formal event is a place without any speakers. The EON ONE is a modular PA system which has all the features one needs for these events.

A huge plus for the EON ONE is that it has its own power source, in case the event is held outdoors. The speakers, which are portable, are synced to the main module through Bluetooth technology, doing away with the hassle of cables and tangled wires.

Bose S1 Pro Multi-Position Powered PA System

For even larger crowds the Bose S1 Pro Multi-Position Powered PA System is the speaker of choice for Haidak. It can reach the farthest people in a crowd of thousands. However, it is still modular in design, which makes mixing boards and power amplifiers a requirement if one were to use this as a back-up system for live gigs.

On the club and festival circuit, Haidak is also no stranger. He has played at festivals alongside names such as John Digweed, Nic Fanciulli, Stephan Bodzin, Reinier Zonneveld, Oliver Weiter, Henry Saiz, Kobosil, and many more. For more on Haidak and his music, click here.
