my friend just bought a house and he is throwing a party to break it in. but he needs a sound system for the party and i was hoping some of you TAs might be able to help me with this. he posted this on another board. the dj stadenco that he mentions is a good friend of mine from new york and also a really talented musician.

Lower Bottom Builders (3 boys from Vermont) are looking for a DJ(s) and a sound system for a party in West Oakland (2 blocks from Bart, plenty of parking) on Friday October 15 to celebrate our first West Oakland project.

thanks! i appreciate the lead.

That's too much sound for a house party... In all honesty, for a break-in party all you need is 2 JBL Eons Speakers, Turntables and mixer.... I own my own sound system company here in LA and that sound Dave mentions is really good, but too much sound and power for a house party. It will get raided quick because it's too loud....You really dont need a club system in a house.

This is a pict of one of my sound systems. I use this one mainly for house parties or "2nd" small rooms.... hehehe That's 2 small JBL EON Speakers, turntables, mixer and needles. With these speakers you dont need amplifiers because they're built in. It's a small enough system to fit on my Honda Civic. And, it's usually around $200-$250 to rent for one night. Not to mention it's pretty loud too!
