Re: MS50DR Monitor System

2003-10-17 by ralphpegden1

Hi,  first post,  has anyone tried the MS50DR yet,  I can't find any 
reviews.  Also any idea what the price is in the UK?  looks like its 
around $300 in the US.

I'm basically doing some light orchestral drumming in an Xmas show 
soon and wanted to use my newly acquired DTEXPRESS2 (which is great) 
to get lots of xmassy effects on different kits,  but I don't want to 
use the full PA setup I use in the band,  as the setup time is too 
long and its heavy and way over the top etc etc.   The MS50DR looks 
perfect for what I need,  also the PM-3 Roland setup looks good  but 
it is expensive.  around £600 in the UK.  Any other options that give 
high quality sound. as I won't need much power. Currently at home I 
use a PC subwoofer with two satellite speakers  and it sounds great, 
at low volume,  however this is way too underpowered for what I need.

regards...Ralph
