I need cheap LOUD speakers

[Whoop]

Hi Folks,

I'm helping a friend of the family start his DJ hobby up and he has some decent decks and an amp etc but some really bad HiFi speakers. He won't know any better so volume > quality here I think.

Is there somewhere to get second hand decent stuff or an alternative to the cheap and cheerful Skytec stuff I see everywhere? (with mixed reviews).

He has to pay for them himself (he is 12) so we are looking really cheap... the Skytec SL8 for example being only £51 and 200W

Anyone in the know on something better?

If he wants do something other than playing DJ and develop, volume isn't going to do anything good by itself. I'd bet on headphone monitors or less loud but more precise speakers. And he won't irritate others much.

It is true, I run a pair of Mackie myself.

Kids and their loud music, it'll just be to impress his friends so I'll talk him into better quality!
