i am suppose to dj this girls halloween party next month cause her other dj bailed on her but i need decent speakers that hook up to a computer. the ones i have now are ok (4 small speakers and 1 sub)…but i just dont know if they will get the job done. what i am looking for really is the kind that you always see in home music studios like on MTV and what not. not lookin to spend a whole lot anywhere around $150 i would say or even a sound card that i could send audio from the computer to my home stereo, that also another posibility ---

eh I have these ones for my home studio: [http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&q=m+audio+studio+pro+3&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=product\_result\_group&resnum=4&ct=title](http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&q=m+audio+studio+pro+3&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=product_result_group&resnum=4&ct=title) AMAZING quality for the price, but I don’t know if they would be loud enough for a party… the only other ones I can think of off the top of my head that would be sufficient, although about $50 more than you wanted to spend are these: [http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/KRK-ST6-2-Way-Passive-Studio-Monitor-each?sku=602270&src=3WFRWXX&ZYXSEM=0&CAWELAID=26047381](http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/KRK-ST6-2-Way-Passive-Studio-Monitor-each?sku=602270&src=3WFRWXX&ZYXSEM=0&CAWELAID=26047381) Those ones get LOUD. Much louder than the first ones, but twice the price (note the $99 is for 1 monitor for the krk, where you get 2 of the M-Audio ones). As for hooking up your home stereo speakers, all you would need is one of these and run an rca (red/white) wire from the speaker jack on your computer, to the rca input on your receiver… [http://sewelldirect.com/planet-waves-rca-to-14-inch-stereo-plug\_specs.asp?source=froogle&utm\_source=Froogle&utm\_medium=cse](http://sewelldirect.com/planet-waves-rca-to-14-inch-stereo-plug_specs.asp?source=froogle&utm_source=Froogle&utm_medium=cse) hope at least some part of this helps :tup: ---

seriously to do this right you would need a board and speakers. i just use all my dads when i do all my djing, iv been thinking of doing it as a side job. if you decide you want to hire someone, let me know. id do it real cheap, i have lighting, sound system, laptop. everything to get the job done. ---

bose is garbage. FACT. i would suggest renting a PA system if you want it done right. there is no reason to have studio monitors when you’re DJing. in fact, everyone I see using them to DJ out live, breaks them. in fact, i would never take my monitors out of the house unless i was moving my living situation. ---
