Celestion SR3s

Celection SRC controller

Not got a QSC PLX but did get an old QSC poweramp off beagle and it's been great, rock solid.

QSC good amp

Mg8 ok  you'll need fx bit of verb goes a long  way

Celstion bits old and unsupported good for vox only and if they work are good enough at the right price 

IMHO assuming this is an ebay purchase steer clear of the package its likely to be old and shagged

Thanks for info so far fellas ...

 

@ maltings .. it is an ebay item ... here is what the ebayer (on behalf of the owner / seller told me in a message) ...

 

 

"So the PA... Speakers are about ten years old, mixer and amplifier are five. Light use as Steve (who owns them) only did after dinner speeches and the occasional cabaret show.
That's not to say this is a lightweight system it is a very powerful 1500watt system suited to vocals. backing tracks, disco. add a couple of subs and another amplifier and it will handle a band.
The 2x10" SR1 are rated at 500w per cab and that's "Rms" not some fancy figure made up on paper, and the SR3 are rated at 250w per cab.
The power amplifier sells new now for just over £700 and the mixer sells for £140. The SKB £89 and stands £70.
The speaker cost new about £2500 with the controller. The system is an absolute bargain and all works perfectly.
The mixer is still like the day I sold it and still in its original box. the amplifier is new as it has spent its life in the skb rack case.
The SR1 Celestions have the usual scuffs from being put in and out of a car but the fronts are as new due to the clip on front cover carrying handles (just like the Bose 802) The SR3's however have scuffs etc but work perfectly same with the stands.
Hope that's answered your questions "
