Alto TX408 Entry PA Set – A First Proper PA for Speech, Playback and Small Gigs

Schools, community halls, fitness studios and first bands: two Alto Professional TX408 powered 8-inch speakers on K&M 21435 steel stands, with a Mackie Mix8 to take two microphones and two stereo sources. Compact enough to store in a cupboard, loud enough for a room of a hundred people.

In This Setup

• Alto Professional TX408 (2 units) – powered speaker with an 8-inch woofer, 300 W peak (175 W RMS), 75 Hz-20 kHz, 116 dB maximum SPL, XLR and 6.35 mm TRS inputs, XLR link output, pole mount, 6.2 kg.
• K&M 21435 (2 units) – steel tripod speaker stands, 144-223 cm height, 50 kg load per stand, 35 mm tube end with integrated mounting aid.
• Mackie Mix8 – 8-channel analog mixer with two XLR/TRS combo mic inputs and phantom power, two stereo line channels, RCA tape in/out, 3-band EQ per channel, aux send, main and headphone outputs, 1.1 kg.

Why This Combination

• Two mics plus music: the Mix8 handles a presenter, a second mic and a phone or laptop at once.
• Link, not split: run the mix into one TX408 and use its XLR link out to the second.
• Light and storable: 6.2 kg per speaker, folding stands, a mixer that fits in a drawer.

Set price includes two speakers, two stands and the mixer; cables are sold separately.
