Trouper Compact Performance PA System by Alto Professional

Trouper Compact Performance PA System by Alto Professional

Alto

Description

Trouper is a 2-way 200-watt bi-amplified system (130 watts LF/70 watts HF) with (3) 6 ½ (165mm) woofers and a 1 (25mm) high-frequency compression driver, delivering 65-20kHz frequency response. The system has thermal and dynamic overload protection, so the sound is always clean and clear however hard you push it.

A built-in mixer section features three channels of inputs, each with line/mic 1, line/mic 2, and Aux. XLR, RCA, ¼ and 1/8 connectors, so whether yo are a DJ, presenter or a musician, all of your cables will work with the Trouper. It features two-Band (LF/HF) built-in EQ for each channel, and Full Bluetooth capability for streaming input signals wirelessly (plus wireless linking of another Trouper system for stereo applications).

The Trouper's trapezoidal enclosure dramatically reduces internal standing wave resonances, resulting in cleaner output in upper bass and vocal range. It is easy to set up and use, and it takes a lot of real-world punishment:

It is stand-mountable with 36mm pole socket and covered in scuff-resistant black vinyl wrap and protective steel corners. Easily transportable at just 23 lb., The Trouper is a great-performing, flexible, go-anywhere PA system that makes any small-venue gig sound its best.

SINGER-SONGWRITERS WILL LOVE THE TROUPER!

I purchased one of these a few weeks ago,and I must say that I love it!The thing I like most is the clarity of my vocals.It is also very light to carry,and seems very well built.Sound quality overall is excellent!This solves a prominent problem I've had for years using acoustic amps at small gigs--muddy vocals.The high quality sound,the reasonable price and it's good looks make this a solo performer's DREAM.I think the TROUPER will make a lot of singer-songwriters VERY HAPPY!

Not recommended for Bluetooth

I had bought two of these speakers for Blutooth functionality with my I phone. unfortunately when connected to Bluetooth it produces a very irritating high pitch humming sound and makes these useless for Bluetooth audio for high quality sound. their look and feel appears to be good. Wired audio appears to be fine and good quality in the price range: rather pretty good.

    We are Opera Singers who used the Troupers for an outdoor concert. The Troupers were very natural, uncolored sounding, not like a PA. just like singing without mics just louder. Very easy to set up and tear down. We used a pair of Sennheiser 935 mics and an electronic keyboard. The singers loved the sound, and the audience gave us a standing ovation.

    I use these with a mixer to add several mics and to have needed EQ for each mic and needed effects. Horns as well as vocals sound very good in the Alto Trouper.

  • Owned for a year now. Excellent

    This is the small club/bar/coffee house performers best friend. Here's my set up: I run 2 of these as stereo mains. Left and right just in front on the mic (blue encore 300). I run electric and acoustics through a firehawk FX board and vocals through tc helicon play acoustic. Also a DigiTech SDRUM pedal in the guitar chain. All those sources go line level into a Behringer xr-12 digital mixer. I can get studio level sound quality with this set up while doing live performances. Loud enough for a medium sized busy restaurant. Perfect for outdoor events (band shell etc). I've owned them for a year now and gig 3-6 times a month. All weather conditions. (They're not waterproof just have had them in heat cold and humidity). They are class D so no cooling fan to worry about. I run the EQ on them mostly flat. The xr-12 is for dialing in the sound. Bonus is that I can run some jazz or background music into them with either Bluetooth or through the Bluetooth function on the FHFX. So folks can get music during set up and tear down. Light units and the covers fit well (found them on eBay for cheap). I've had many bands in town that run larger jbl/EV/Mackie/Yamaha systems that are always surprised by the sound quality. No these aren't powerful enough for you typical "bar band/have to scream at someone while the band is playing" but for singer/songwriter, jazz ensembles/even smaller rock/blues venues they are perfect.

  • Love this but !

    Can you plug 2 guitars and one microphone into the unit? How much does it weight? sabino

    Open Reply - Ronald
    No. There's only the 2 inputs so you would need a mixer to access more. and it weighs 25lbs.
