Hi, I work at festivals and run a mobile booth with sound for music. Electronic music. I have always used the Z-5500 Logitech. It has quite a following, and impressive for being loud. 1000 watt, 505 rms etc, and the boost setting allowing the amp to use full power.
I play this outside and need it to be loud be small to fit on my mobile setup.
Thus why a computer system like this works so well.

As of now, I am in a situation where I need to update it and they no longer make the z-5500 and I need something comparable. That loud boost is so important to projecting the sound for my implementation. The bass gets so deep at high volume, and the sats are so clear.

So what is comparable to the Z-5500...I hear the new model z906 doesnt quite do it, and the Edifier 5.1 competes but does not play at those loud boost levels.

At this point is there any computer system out there that competes or levels with the z-5500? OR, should I look into another department outside of computer system setup? I'm not super savy on speakers so was hoping to find a system that is made to work at those levels. When setup at a festival, I really need something dependable and I am terrible at putting things together and would hate for it to not add up right and break on site.
Size is a factor too, It is a small space and mobile so I cannot just have a 2'x2' sub with 4 JBL PAs and a huge generator :) Any ideas?
