I agree with Archie Leach. I would also like to point out, probably just bad luck, but I've had issues with the VIP 3 cutting out on me randomly where the volume suddenly drops, whatever effects are being used then drop, and then it cuts out completely.. I haven't had anyone look at it, but this has been the behavior since day 1 about 8 months ago when I bought the amp. I suspect it got bounced around during shipping, but figured I'd mention it. Maybe others have experienced the same issue. Eventually, I'll have an authorized shop take a look at it. I do like the presets, and for now, I'm using a Marshall MG102CFX but miss the presets that come with the VIP 3 I agree with Archie Leach.

This is more of a practice amp or for small venues such as night clubs, small dance halls. Any large space needs a larger amp. An alternative is to mike the Vipyr through the large halls sound system or the stage's PA system.

great sounding solid state amp and if your going to mic it should be good for large venue hope this helps

I think you can, you can really crank-up the volume on this amp. with the master, and power sponge. I really Love this amp.

If your performance is in a space that is club size, I say yes. For larger I believe you would need more speakers. Like a twin reverb. This has one 12". Good luck and hope you do well.

This is a large speaker and has good and loud sound without much distortion. If you are planning small events, this is too big. If you are planning large events for Karaoke, it would work great. I do both large and small events and only pull out these (I have two) when I am in an area with 100+ people.

Not sure. It will fill a gamely room with music. Use it in garage to work out.

Most definitely, yes. It fills my 5000 square foot shop with great sound. One of the best room filling speakers I've ever bought and I've owned the Bose, pioneer and klipsch.

Most definitely! I burn my mp3 playlists on a cd. The mega base adds an extra dimension!

Yes, it would be a great speaker for that application. I use it to play music from my iPhone all the time. Plug it into the wall, connect to your phone via Bluetooth and go. It's very simple. I move it room to room but usually have it in a 900 sq. ft. classroom. I can't imagine needing it to be any louder unless I were to use it outside. In that case, I will definitely buy a second one of these - you can pair your phone to one and pair the first speaker to a second via Bluetooth and have the entire thing set up wirelessly (other than power cables).

It will be enough, bigger would be better but they sound great if even not optimized. Good speakers for the low price.

I've used it for theater with live video feed and processor. We used it in a small space and it definitely worked for our production.

Tropez the speakers are BANANAS!!! U cant go wrong either way.. U a sub for a large gathering of 500 or more!!

Believe me, it plays plenty loud without distortion. Make sure you properly place it in the room and the bass response will be fine.

No i. You can have it nywhere in the room & works well. However set it a bit away from sitting area. Do not have it too close to your sitting space. I have mine next to a wall in the corner. the first month I had this sub, I tried lots of different places in my living room. It sounded good from anywhere

I have a similar sized room. It is fine though I agree the box is larger than I anticipated. I love the sound and it pairs well with Bose floor, Polk inwall and a name brand sw speakers.

Dear Sheila, this boom box is L O U D you will enjoy it very much for open and large spaces. It should do you just fine. Enjoy and practice a lot, practice makes perfect!!

I would say 80 is really pushing it. With a crowd that big, it'll be difficult to overcome the crowd noise. And the area needed for a party that size will probably be a bit beyond the range of what this system can deliver. The system is geared more towards home theater, so for your specific needs I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

I'm not quite sure what you mean...but, here's a few things I've learned using this live. If your gigs are effects heavy, take time to create/design presets beforehand and set them to memory on the pedal. That way you can easily switch between them as the show goes.

I've used this for many, many concerts. You MUST make sure that you set it in music mode (which defaults the volume level to low). As long as you do that, you'll have pretty good sound quality even if it is very loud or close to the stage. I hide the recorder near my lap, and so the chairs block some of the sound, and so I usually give it a boost between 1k-2k afterwards.

I dont think do. Its sounds great. You can enjoy the music in this little thing.
