Personally, I couldn't think of a single use for a monitor like that. No matter how cheap they are.

Do you really want to mess with 70 volt setups?

4 - OT12 2512
1 - T24
1 - SLA Pro
2 - XF210

Good enough for what? To DJ with? For monitors? For installed sound?
2x T39, 1x T60, 1x THTLP, 1x AT(not built by me) 6x DR250
I need more bass
