Relationship between amplifier and speaker

prowla

Depending upon the size of the band and venue, it may be appropriate to route the sound via the P.A., rather than have large individual instrument amps.

If it's an acoustic guitar, then the requirement is to amplify the natural sound of the instrument, so microphones into the P.A. may be appropriate.

If it's an electric guitar, then the instrument is the combination of guitar, effects pedals, amplifier and speakers; they go together to make the overall sound. If they go via the P.A., then we're talking pro- level.

Good review on Amazon as PA system (within my budget too). But will it also be good for playing acoustic instruments (guitar/mandolin/violin) using the mics that come with the package?

Looks like those frequencies are obsolete, not for use on new equipment.

"Older VHF equipment may continue to use the legacy frequencies:"

Depends on how 'old' and 'new' are defined in the appropriate legislation.

'New' as in supplied new, or new in terms of manufactured after a certain date ...?

EDIT - The relevant legislation appears to be

Wireless Telegraphy (Exemption) Regulations 2003
amended by
The Wireless Telegraphy (Exemption) (Amendment) Regulations 2006

Good Luck.
