It looks a beast of a home stereo, but I'm not convinced I would trust it for DJ'ing. The thing is, when all your friends arrive their bodies will soak up the sound and and their talking/shouting will drown out the music- 2000 watts is a huge amount of power- if that really is what it delivers. The thing that makes me not believe it is that it says the peak output is 22,000 watts. That is simply not possible.
The cones are large enough: 8 inch for the mid/bass speakers and 15inch for the subwoofer- that is comparable to a 'proper' PA system, so technically as long as you get the main speakers above height it should be loud enough.
But like I said I don't believe they can really do 2000 watts and even if it can, I don't think the build quality will be high enough to keep everything working reliably.
Instead, research mackie, JBL, QSC, electrovoice- these are all proper PA system manufacturers and you might be able to pick something up second hand.
Or if you want something new and cheaper, look at behringer speakers - not such good quality as the others but actually designed for PA and DJ usage.
