I don’t have a sound system. I only have a peavey nashville 112 steel guitar amp, and the sound I get playing my sound files via the iPhone plugged into the amp is unacceptable. I just want a good fidelity speaker, one with a Lf and hf component that’ll approximate the full sound of an acoustic instrument, including volume, highs and lows. I want it to sound like another banjo player is sitting next to me playing the harmony part as I play the melody part. I figured a bluetooth speaker with some oomph would do the trick for fewer dollars. I also looked at portable battery powered pa systems. Samsung and behringer both have units that look pretty good for around $200 - more than I really want to spend now though.
