These are not worth the time to look at these. You can't run them loud enough hear anything without distorting. I returned them the day after I got them. They just prove that you get what you pay for.

I bought two of the PXA105 speakers to use in a gym for a local ball game announcer, with light music before and after the game. Price was a concern for the entire system, so I selected these based on that, their feature set, and reviews of other GemSound products.

For the price, these speakers are a bargain. They have sufficient volume for my application, but little headroom above unity gain (they clip between 6 and 10 above with all faders and pots at 0). The rated power of 125 watts and 99 db sensitivity seems fairly accurate compared to my Peavey PR12s and Behringer EP1500 rig.

They have plenty of bass, and to achieve a good even sound I had to lift highs and cut lows using the onboard EQ. I tested them in my back yard, and they had great presence and intelligibility at 75 feet for voice and music.

Pros: construction quality, sound quality, control & mix features, weight, size

Cons: low power/volume

If you need an inexpensive indoor PA for a small room, or a great lightweight powered monitor, these will serve well. I would buy again for such a purpose. If you need higher volume to cut through a loud crowd or band, spend the extra money to get the power you need.

Thumbs up for fast order filling and a great customer service department.
