Alto Professional TS408-2000W 8" Active PA Speaker with 3 Channel Mixer, Bluetooth Streaming and Durable Slip-on Cover for TS408 Active Powered PA Speaker

Got my 'little' Alto Professional Busker and WOW, this mini speaker sounds awesome. Used it in zumba classes and it packs a real punch with the volume (not even at max) and everyone loves it. Clarity is excellent and for me, the bass is perfect. I haven't tested it on the outdoors as yet but I am sure it will perform well for a small speaker and depending on the area. All in all, a great buy for me, affordable and suits my budget. and looks very sturdy. It is heavy but manageable and much better than a huge, bulky speaker. I am happy I chose the perfect one for my needs. Just wish they had a cover to buy for the speaker.

The media could not be loaded. Note about the video: this was at about 20% volume.Disclaimer: only used these speakers once for an outdoor party - used for about 6 hours total run time. No issues with overheating or degraded sound quality over time.What I like: Excellent clarity. Very good bass without a sub. Connecting to the speakers and pairing them was easy. Good bluetooth range. Started losing signal at about 100ft unobstructed. App is pretty easy to use and the presets are actually useful. Extremely powerful - I cranked the level up to about 50% and it was loud enough to drown out conversation from 80 feet away.What could be better: Self noise - Even at low volumes there is a very audible hiss coming from the speakers. Fine if you are in an environment that is relatively noisy to begin with but could be distracting in places that are very quiet and you try to run these at low volume.Bluetooth pairing to other speaker got slightly out of sync when I was walking around with my phone. I had to 're-pair' the speakers a couple times when I was moving about because there was a slight (like 20 or so miliseconds) delay in one speaker - cause a slapback type effect. Re-paring only took a few seconds but could be a show stopper if you are truly running a show from a bluetooth device and you're not stationary.

I purchased this for my karaoke setup--probably overkill, but it is nice and clear sounding with a decent amount of bass. In my living room, I could never turn this speaker up to max or else I'd be met with hearing problems in the future.I did not find the EQ app/settings useful--was hoping for a reverb setting, but it wasn't available---so I had to go out and buy my Yamaha mixer to remedy this.The bluetooth function of this works great and doesn't feel like it lost any sound quality delivering music. I purchased this over the non bluetooth version for the purpose of dualing it as an outdoor speaker to play music if ever needed. However, I normally play my music for karaoke via my sound bar system, and use this pa system for vocals. If you are the same, you could probably get away with the $100 cheaper system.Slightly heavy (for a small female) if transporting, but at least you know it's stable and built to last.

These speakers kick butt! Ordered two of these, then ordered the Alto 15" sub. I run them from a mixer board with an EQ and you can definitely rock some parties! Before I ordered the sub and hooked up the mixer they were easy to pair to Bluetooth and stereo link. They have worked perfectly with a mixer or Bluetooth. Note: the Alto sub isn't Bluetooth capable, hence the mixer to link it all.

These are perfect for the bar at a restaurant that plays louder music as the night progresses. It has an EQ in back to adjust the sound depending on the type of music you desire. It was compact enough to sit on the top shelf behind some artwork. These do not have a ton of low end like the QSC speakers but they do the job and for the price you can’t go wrong. The QSC vs. are about 2x times as expensive. You could buy 2 of these speakers and the one QSC CP8 speaker. I would advise against the TX308 because of sound quality. These TS408 are much cleaner and hits harder on the low-end. They are very compact and well built. These really does not feel like a $250 speaker but closer to the standard $500 speaker in this size and comes with Bluetooth and other options that my customer did not need but at least it was an option. Bang for the buck these are a good deal.

I like the size and the power these speakers have. They sound pristine, clear, and powerful. The only issue is the way the APP works, it could be a little bit confusing to know which speaker you are pairing to, but it is not impossible to make it work. I would suggest that if you are using a big subwoofer fix the EQ killing the bass of your speakers, that way your sound will have more power!!! Enjoy them, now I am considering getting the 12-inch version to boost my PA.

Do not buy!!!! Battery life is not what they claim,speakers after awhile make a fan,waterfall sound when turned on and nothing plugged into them.alto customer service is horrible.buy something else

Great sound! Love the punchy feel of these 10's . Worth every penny Chose this over the 12's since I pair it with a powered sub. Better blend to my ears. Way better than mackies I had.
