#5 LD Systems Stinger 10-A-G3: $674.00 Amazon $674.00 eBay
Same family: the LD Systems Stinger 8-A-G3 (smaller model, rated 3.7/5), the LD Systems Stinger 28-A-G3 (smaller model, rated 3.5/5), the LD Systems Stinger 12 A G3 (larger model, rated 3.5/5) and the LD Systems Stinger 15-A-G3 (larger model, rated 3.4/5).
Pros: An affordable, light 10 inch PA speaker with balanced sound and surprisingly deep bass for its size, with two mic or line inputs. Medium-quality vendor data returns a 5.89 ideal-subwoofer preference score with 49Hz measured extension, a genuinely deep result for an affordable 10-inch box. At 12.7kg it is one of the lightest active speakers in this ranking. Measured bass extension of 56Hz (-3dB).
Cons: Its 127dB peak claim is modest next to the higher-output rivals here, and its 90° x 50° horn is on the narrower side.

Frequency Response
How the LD Systems Stinger 10-A-G3 measures across the audible range. A flatter listening window (the sound arriving straight at you) is more neutral: peaks sound forward or harsh, dips sound recessed. The estimated in-room response adds what a typical room does, and there a gentle, even tilt down toward the treble is ideal. Both curves are shifted so their 300 Hz to 3 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: spinorama.org, measured by the manufacturer.
EQ for a Neutral Response
Flattens the measured listening window from the LD Systems Stinger 10-A-G3's own bass extension up to 16 kHz. Set a preamp of -3.0 dB, then add these filters to any parametric equalizer in the signal path: the speaker's app or DSP if it has parametric EQ, a miniDSP, Equalizer APO or Wavelet. Boosts are kept to 3 dB, and EQ cannot fix how evenly the speaker spreads sound off-axis, which is why some speakers gain more than others. Predicted preference score with this EQ: 4.0, up from 3.6 (6.4 with an ideal subwoofer, up from 5.9). Calculated by Speaker Ranking from the spinorama measurements above.
| Filter | Frequency | Gain | Q |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peak | 95 Hz | -5.2 dB | 1.47 |
| Peak | 668 Hz | -1.4 dB | 0.98 |
| Peak | 919 Hz | +1.3 dB | 4.00 |
| Peak | 2,535 Hz | +3.0 dB | 2.09 |
