[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 57710, member: 277"] Re: How to handle monitors combing when in pairs. I have a bunch of the SM159zi's as well. When using 2 of any wedge for the same mix I generally will spead the pair out and try to cover a wider zone in the case of a vocalist or musician that likes to move around in a wide area. They never notice the lobeing or at least never complain about it. I usually hi pass them pretty high anyway for most vocalist. In the case of the ego thing that Ivan mentioned, who cares what it really sounds like if they are happy with it and it does not cause any problems on stage. We are working for them anyway in the monitor position. I have on occasion been able to cure the "I need 2 monitors for my fragile little ego" thing by using one of the more powerful wedges and turning it up really loud. After they give me the "turn it down" signal we are usually good for the night. [/QUOTE]
