Your question invites a huge variety of responses.

My own preference is the Yamaha StagePas 500 system which meets your requirements. I currently have the StagePas 300 which has given 6 years regular and faithful service with both my Korg Pa2x and Korg M3 at a variety of gigs and in my home. It also has the benefit of a small mixer which can accept inputs from two keyboards, a couple of guitars and a couple of microphones.

The speakers are very solidly built and easy to transport, and are compact and light for the power rating.

Regards,
Rob

Hey Ironkorg, you might take a look at the QSC KW 152. These can be used as mains or monitors.

If you can afford it , 2 X EV ZXA5 is the real deal to listen to the dimension power of Pa3X , supporting real 50 HZ/133 dB SPL /23Kgr
and reproducing the real power that stage musicians play (2.5KW) !

Then forget 15" Speaker since bass reflex design and speaker tech can provide lower frequencies and not necessary 15"
woofer which actually can't provide sufficient low middle frequencies , since this is the main issue of all 2 - way speaker
cabinets (except ZXA5 & ZX3).
So my next proposal is

If possible combined with http://www.thomann.de/gb/ev_zxa1sub.htm

A cheaper option - I have had great results with Behringer "Eurolive B115D" powered speakers

Even without subs these sound great with a nice full range (15")
I use a pair of these.

I also use these with my digital drums (I have a top-of-range Yamaha kit) and the range and clarity is awesome (bass to cymbals)

See: http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/B115D.aspx

Cheers

Thanks karmathanever for the help !
Today I went to a Music instruments Store and I hearing some Aktive Speakers . I heard and the Behringer "Eurolive B115D'' speakers . I confesses to say that they does not impress me playing whith The Pa3x and other synths , guitars etc .
The only good thing I could find from Euroline was the price of them , but not the hole sound with the Pa3x or voice and a little with one classic guitar . I heard them very rough , very empty the sound etc ...
The SHOP has not the EV ZXA1-100B fot the time to listen who suggest me the member AntonySharmman ( and i thanks him very much for the help ) and generally had not any EV Loudspeaker .
But i heard two models of Active speakers which i am impressed very very much ..
The two models was from DYNACORD ..
Is the http://www.thomann.de/gb/dynacord_d8_a.htm
and the http://www.thomann.de/gb/dynacord_a_115a.htm .
Especially the second one , the 15'' model is the best speaker I have heard until now , playing for my Pa3x and general for Pa music with other instruments ..
I would like you please to tell me ( anyone who knows ) your opinion for these Active Full-Range Loudspeakers
Thanks !

First things first... Do you need the speaker for home, or gigs. Next... can you stand mono, or do you want stereo?

If home, a pair of good studio nearfields will do very well. I use a pair of Mackie HR824's, and not only do they make my arranger sound great, obviously, they also double as the heart of a home studio, something that live speakers won't be accurate enough for.

If live, do you anticipate wanting to be LOUD, or do you anticipate that most of your work will be background and mid-ground music? For semi-quiet, even coverage of a large room, the Bose L series (including to a lesser extent the Bose Compact) line array type speakers are killer for projecting across a room without the typical drop-off in volume non-array systems have.

Some good reports about the HK Nano series have been heard... a very compact sub and two satellites system that will still do stereo (and fit in your budget) that will do gigs up to 150 ppl if they don't want ear-splitting levels!

If your needs are for a more conventional live speaker system, try the K-series from QSC. More money, more volume, superb speakers (I've used these.... love 'em!)

The more info you give us on your anticipated use, the better we can help you.

I'm with Dikikeys. The first thing you need to decide is whether you can live with mono (you say "an active speaker" so are you intending to buy only one?). Your keyboard will sound much more alive with a stereo setup.

Thanks !

I'm afraid that Pa3X with factory resources isn't the proper source to test high rated Pa Systems , since the majority of
section instruments like DrumKits & basses are fake in frequencies compared with the original instruments ,
so I think that a reference CD song could be a better idea to test loudspeakers !

At the other hand regardless of your use , Pa3X in mono mode (mixed L-R) isn't an option at all , since inter-modulation
and phase canceling will totally destroy the sound result of stereo processed sounds , so it's better to listen only L or R channel.

Cost by default will define your options , since with 1200 $ do not expect to cover a small music hall , out of question ,
obviously just personal monitors with limited response !

As concerned to your question, dynacord is the second option after EV since dynacord uses EV speakers but
dynacord combos close to quality of a EV self powered designed systems are equalized after 2000 $ per piece , therefore
the best quality that your money can buy is already suggested and decision is yours !

I think I was clear ...
I Want only one full range active speaker to hear what i play ,
a good quality float monitor near by me . I allready have a Pa system with my band .. so eneryone must have a personal monitor ..
Only one mono monitor ..

My friend , good choise and good quality sound ( I play and hear them with CD-Laptor with every detail) but ......
They are too expensive ...
With the competition of the Top active speakers ( EV & Dynacord ) , at this price I think that , there is no reason to buy them ...
