Hello, I would like to know if you would reccomend 12" or 15" speakers for a 200 watt powered mixer.

What is the rating of the speaker and the mixer?

How many speakers do you want to connect to the mixer?

If the mixer is 200 watts @ 4 ohms, then you can safely connect a pair of 8 ohm speakers to it.

The difference between the 12" and the 15" speaker is really going to be determined by how much low end you need.


Also, what is going to go through this - vocals?
I'm guessing that you are lookingat some kind of PA speaker with either a 12" or 15" woofer.
That's not enough power to run a drumset through it, so you would be wasting your time trying....just to warn you.
Also, with that amount of power, you really need to have the speakers on speaker stands to get them up to head level.
