Wow, you guys have helped me so much and it's just my first day on here...
We're about to buy new speakers/subs/monitors for a church PA. Prices here in New Zealand are high compared to places like the USA. I'm considering Wharfedale EVPX, possibly Wharfedale LX, or JBL jrx series. The EVPX is cheaper by far, not much price difference from LX to JRX. No one seems to say anything bad about the JBLs but it's 50/50 on Wharfedale stuff. Whichever option we go with we will end up with 2x 15" speakers and 2x (15 or 18") subs. Unfortunately most of the info about the wharfedale stuff is coming from salespeople so I don't know if I can trust it.
If (as I expect) everyone says go with JBL hands-down... we can't afford JBLs for foldbacks as well. We have some dB operas (12" which are currently our fofh) which we can use for folds, but we need a couple more folds. Would it be a mistake to just get two EVPX 15" folds to go with four dB operas for a nice fold system?
I would welcome any advice!
