Hey guys, thanks for watching. The 3 most common questions I’m getting in the comment section are: 1) will it last long? 2) 3000w peak power is not possible. 3) that’s not a line array I reached out to ProReck and got a few answers: To answer the first question, they do have a 1 year warranty on it (I should have added that to the video). And they’ve also sold products on Amazon for 10 years and said they respond to customer service inquiries within 48 hours. A 1 year warranty is definitely helpful. I will just say, that’s always part of the risk when buying cheaper. Take care of it, and don’t push this thing beyond its limit and with a 1 year warranty included, you should be good 👍 2) the peak power of 3000w seems very very unlikely to be reached. But as I mentioned, continuous and RMS is more important. I’m trying to understand some of this myself, and they sent over the graph of their subs hitting 400W each and the tops hitting 100W each, so 1000W RMS, which is the amount you should be looking at anyways. They said there is a 3:1 ratio that is applied to many speakers, which I’ve done a little more research and I’ve found other discussions on Reddit claiming this as well, with multiple people saying “how is that possible?” Lol. So my understanding is that “peak” should often just be ignored as it’s unlikely to reach that level. And especially how I emphasize I wouldn’t use this for more than 200/250 people for a band should be taken into consideration more than the peak wattage (and that’s true for other systems as well… pay attention to continuous and RMS). 3. I should have shown how it does angle the speakers like a line array, and you can build on them. I filmed it, but never added it. These are NOT going to be a large line array like you see at festivals, but they do have that curved shape and you can add more. There does seem to very a disagreement on what counts as an actual “line array” system it seems like as well (some call the EV 50 system “line array” for example). They do angle the speakers, or you can have them flat, and you can add more on top. That might be a better way to understand it 👍 One final point that others have pointed out: my band is a 3 piece and we do have a smaller drum kit. Having a larger band might produce different results. We are also all direct and in ears in my band. A full drum kit and large guitar amps might get different results. But for most bands I think it will be okay within the limitations I mention in the video. Again, the 8000 option is also available for larger projects and They do also have the PR-212T system for bigger projects as well. Thanks again for watching as well as for the questions and comments. Hope that helps! 🤘🤘

i think Peak rating is always an ideal thing, tested with the 1k sine wave or something... haha i don't fully understand it either, but i never look at peak. i worked in MI and at a certain point every company only told the Peak rating to make it seem louder than it really is. gotta search for the continuous number, or just divide by 2.

@maebeans 2 ай бұрын

i'm so glad they got back to you on this, a 1000w system is nothing to sneeze at especially if it sounds good and it's a good sign that they are comfortable talking real numbers like that.

@howardworf6760 2 ай бұрын

My rule of thumb is look for the peak SPL - wattage is not really meaningful as speaker efficiency varies so much. And then when you have the peak SPL number, knock at least 10db off and you will have what you are actually going to get in reality. Our band PA system runs at just under a measured 120db full chat (the manufacturers figures are 2x15 1000w peak subs and 2x12 + compression driver 1200W peak full range tops). We play mostly outdoor events for up to 200 people with a full drum kit, keys, 2 guitars, bass and 4 vocals.

I am a diesel mechanic by day and wedding singer/DJ on the weekends. I have a nice Peavey 115D system with a powered 18" sub. I've had the system for nearly 10 years and it still works great but, as my audiences got bigger, I decided I needed a little more punch from my rig. I bought this exact ProReck Club 6000 system at the end of summer 2023. I initially bought it as an add-on to my Peavey system for more sound. It became apparent very quickly that all I needed to pack for my gigs would be the ProReck system. This thing is STUPID POWERFUL and CLEAR for the money!! I run my DJ contoller into the system and just pull down the highs and mids ever so slightly, brightness issue solved!!! I've never had a need to turn the sub volume or master volume past 75%. I have yet to get close to maxing this system out. I've ran it every weekend for the past 10 months (sometimes twice a week) without fail. I also had local bands running their sound thru my ProReck system without issue. This thing ABSOLUTELY ROCKS!!!

Just wanted to stop by to say thank you (again) for the review. Very well done. We picked one of these up for my new cover band based on your review. We haven't used it for a live show yet, but have run it at practice twice. This thing absolutely thumps! What an incredible value! Thumping low end, great clarity, and super portable. I just wanted to confirm for others that your comment about cranking up the gain on the PA and sending a lower signal to it was spot on. We tried barely turning up the volume of the PA, like maybe 25%, and would get this awful distortion from the lead vocalist's mic. We trouble shot everything, the mic, the cables, the snake, the board, and couldn't figure it out. Then, remembering your review, I turned the volume on the PA up to about 75%, and turned the master send from the board down. Problem solved. The additional headroom from the PA is definitely necessary. But now everything sounds fantastic. It can handle our 4-piece alternative cover band swimmingly. Thanks!

Hey Scott, great video! So I picked one of these systems up. Very impressed! Amazing low cost system! Not QSC, but EQ and processing can make it sound pretty good. Already used it for an all day acoustic band showcase. It worked great! I've since purchased additional active subs for a little more low end. One trick I came up with...using my dbx DriveRack PA2, I'm driving the tops with the main input using the 'high' output of the PA2. The dbx crossover is set accordingly. The subs are being fed mono by the mic input using the PA2 'mid' output tuned for low end, and my additional subs are fed mono by the PA2 'low' output. The built in crossover in the Proreck is still active, but feeding the specific bands into the 2 different inputs gives me a little more control.

As the conditions change from event to event, you should always eq your Master Bus that goes to your PA. Of course ig your system isn't able to produce a certain frequency, you won't be able to fix it that way, but a little more low mids and a little less treble should be no problem for the system. I am just wondering how the line array aspect performs. Normally you would have to set at least the levels of the two speakers to use that effekt to its full potential. Otherwise it's honna be very loud in the front. But at least the clarity eill be preserved, because of the two speakers. So maybe thats already an advantage over haveing just one top speaker.

A lot of people have asked for that haha. It’s a cajon with a reverse pedal so he sits on the cajon and still has a kick pedal. He then has a snare, hi hat, and single cymbal. Then the Roland spdsx sample pad has the Toms, and electronic sounds and any song-specific samples 👍

I got my ears molded for $50 at an audiologist and eartune fidelity made customer molded ear tips that fit my Shure 215s and I have a pair for my Sennheiser ie100s too.. Idk if UE are available but they do let you mail in your ear monitors and they will 3d scan them so not only can you get custom silicone ear tips but your ear monitors will be added to the list for other people to be able to get them and all for $149.99. I just wanted to say I'm not sponsored or trying to advertise for eartune.. I'm just saying it is an alternative between getting expensive custom molded iems and using the supplied rubber or foam ear tips

Still using 1/4" or T(R)S plugs for amplified speaker signal is a no no. Speakon has four pins allowing two signals in one cable (1+&1- ; 2+&2-). You could easily run the HF and LF over one cable. TRS or XLR for speaker signal is an outdated practice from the past because you can easily mix them up with line level gear.

Hi Scott I love the reviews of affordable gear the quality you get these days for the money is outstanding. One of your previous reviews was the Alto stealth 1 do you have any issues at all I bought 2 sets for my smaller band rig and use a Behringer X-air however I occasionally get muffled distorted vocals. I have tried most things but back to cables for the time being. Maybe it's because hear in the UK we have to use the 863 to 865 band and only get 9 selectable channels instead of 16..

If you’re wanting to clean up the cabling and make things easier, you could rewire the speakon jacks to work with NL4 (same connector just using 4 wires) to send the sub And satellite signal to the other side, then just put a jack on the passive sub to connect the speakers above it. That makes it only 1 cable running around the stage, and you can get speakon couplers so you could have 2 25ft cables instead of a 50ft that’s too big for some spots

This was a real eye-opening and super comprehensive review. Thanks for all the samples. They were really helpful. I'm blown away by the cost/benefit. However, a real deal killer for me is the lack of dedicated sub input. For my band that just ain't gonna cut it. I hope they come up with a version that has a sub input, even if it bumps the price up a bit. Until then, it's a pass for me unfortunately. They also might want to consider making a version of the system where both sides are active with bluetooth (or other dedicated wireless) for intra-speaker connection as an option. With the price and efficiency of Class D amps, it could still be a very cost-effective system. Would love to eliminate those sub-to-sub cables.

Hey Scott & friends. I did a gig in SF they had the 3000 version. I brought my gear too just in case but with this 3000 someone had inserted a 1/4 into combo jack 1, and the tip of the 1/4 got wedged in so I couldn't use a 1/4, but an XLR still worked.1:25 left side channel one. I still could not get this system to sound good direct in (mic and guitar) or mixed out from my JBL PRX One. So I opted not to use it at all. Another event a week later at the same event which was just DJ, we hoped to just line in from the DJ Controller 1/4 into channel 2 (using a Koogo guitar wireless transmitter as a wireless AUX) and then MY tip of the 1/4 was ripped off so now both of their combo jacks have 1/4 tips in them. So something to keep in mind. Also the 3000 speaker out I don't know if they do stereo with the mix out (Scott any input?) There is a stereo 1/4 3/4 input on the 3000 (interesting there isn't one fo the 6000) that we may have to use moving forward to save us bringing all our gear when they should have decent system with these. I also assume one of their previous vendors may have blown the speakers (tops) at their roof top pool parties, because it sounded like trash. Probably trying to push more sound outdoors than the 3000 version could handle. Happy gigs!

@ScottUhlMusic Ай бұрын

Thanks, Scott! Great review. I have a question I think you've answered.... but... I've been looking at this ProReck for some time. I foolishly asked about it on a FB PA group, and got skewered by "experts" who said "no way will you get anything usable for $600" - none who have actually tried it. One guy said "ask your parents for a loan and spend $5000..." -- I'm a 60 year old guy... LOL. My question: I'm really new at playing with a band. We have a little three piece - two guitars, bass, vocal. We use a beat buddy pedal until we find a drummer. We've done a couple very small gigs, and got some interest - will be playing some small venues like small bars, even a decent size coffee shop, so need a PA. This seems like a perfect starter PA for us. We do have a AH CQ-18T mixer that I think will be perfect for this. I think your entire review speaks right to guys like us.... correct? especially with 60 bucks more off!!!

This sounds like it would be a great system for you! And you will always deal with Facebook “experts” lol. Just ignore them. Everyone has different goals with music gear. If they want to spend the price to get a “pure tone”, they can. This is a great budget option for smaller shows and bands 👍

@byronmarsh1352 2 ай бұрын

It looks like a pretty cool inexpensive system. They could have made it more elegant by using a NL4FX 4 conductor cable and used one cable for the remote sub and top. Unless you want to split tops from the bottoms one heavy duty cable across the stage is better than two. I don't really like that they are using 1/4" cables for speaker outs, I would prefer speakon style for everything. It may just be me, though.

@johnmcquay82 2 ай бұрын

For a system in that price point, I'm pleasantly surprised. One thing I would have expected though; as the power module is in one sub, and two runs are being made to the other side, I would have expected the speakon to be an NL4, and for there to be two short cables to the tops from the subs. A small gripe, but for south of 700 bucks, it's a steal of a system at first glance.

Cool systems. Questions for you, Scott: • Do you think the speakers are durable and would hold up over time? • Could you simply EQ the output of the digital mixer to roll down the highs and add back some of the low mids? • Will they send you the larger one to test out? Curious how it would compare. Thanks!

I think they would, but they do have a 1 year warranty. I will say, part of the risk of buying cheap can be longevity. Thats true with anything affordable. But with a 1 year warranty especially, I feel good about it. You can roll back the highs for sure, but I don’t know if you can bring back the low mids if they aren’t there. I tried bringing some of them in, and it worked, but it was still slightly lacking. Again, I’m probably the only person who noticed I would love to try out the PTR series

@@ScottUhlMusic Thanks for the answser. I was wondering if it was you just didn't have time to fully EQ or the speaker engineering basically lacked that. Thanks! Yeah, the less expensive stuff is a gamble sometimes. The year warranty is good. Few will have the QSC 5 or 6 year warranties that some of their stuff has.
