I've recently picked up a pair of Behringer B212A 400 Watt powered speakers and I am very satisfied with them - particularly considering the $229/each price point. I am only using them at home for jamming/home recording, though. They are plenty loud. They seem to have a little more bottom than I personally need but when I run the output of my Fender Cyber-Twin to my mixer then on to the Behringers, they sound pretty darn sweet.
Regards, Paul

Hi All,
Just ordered a Boss RC-50 and am pretty excited. I find myself now
wondering for the first time, what do I do for sound output as my amp
will likely be input for the RC-50? The options of the PA world are
somewhat blinding.
Apartment playing will be the main area of use with the occasional
trek to a friend's house. I also plan to record and don't have any
monitors so wondering if I could combine the needs. The thing that
makes me nervous about that is putting a nice pair of studio monitors
in my car a couple times a month and driving for 2 hrs seems like a
really bad idea.
If I go the PA route, I'm not sure what the wisest choice may be.
Could I get by with a single active/powered PA speaker? Do I need two
for any reason? On the active vs. passive topic is there a good
motivation for passive?
Too many options....
Anyone have an recommendations? (What would you do, any particular
items you like?)
