DJ Amps and speakers

For any aspiring DJ they will always start their career mixing it up, locked away in their bedroom and cranking all they can from there Multi Media system or struggling hi-fi system. Everyone has fancied themselves as a DJ at some point in their lives and everyone has given it a go, blasting out intermittent commentary to their poor unsuspecting neighbors, on the mentioned equipment. This is all very well and good if you want to spend the rest of your life as a bedroom DJ but if you have any ambitions then you need to be taking that next crucial step and get hold of a proper DJ Amp and DJ Speakers.
An amplifier and speakers allows you to take all of the sounds that have come from the turntable and into the mixer and turn them into legible noise that fills the room where you are playing.
In some cases you can buy the amp and speakers combined but this tend to make it more expensive so for now you’re much better buying these two pieces of DJ equipment separately.
Before we move on to the product reviews we would like to first give you a basic lesson in understanding in how your amps and speakers actually work.
How does an amp work?
Amplifiers surround us in many different guises. The most well known type of amp will obviously be present in the form of your personal stereo or your television. These two devices are both amplifiers in a sense as they both receive sound vibrations and amplify them outwards so that you can hear them. And the list doesn’t stop there. Amplifiers can be found in computers or CD players and in fact anything that uses a speaker to transmit sound.
Obviously sound is the one thing that the amp feeds upon. Sound itself is a very unusual yet totally natural phenomenon. Sound waves are formed when an object such as the string on a guitar is plucked, and the air around the string then vibrates in unison with the vibration of the string. This vibrating air is then resonated outwards in a pulse like motion until it reaches your ear and appears as sound. The ear itself works by picking up this vibration and fluctuations in air pressure and then the brain begins the process of deciphering these signals so that you can make sense of it.
An amplifier does pretty much the same thing by receiving an electric current and then converting it into another signal whilst boosting this converted signal at the same time.
Ok so this is a pretty basic explanation but hopefully you may be able to understand a little bit more about the process.
