[QUOTE="Lean Drusi, post: 214031, member: 14110"] Hello, Im a pianist and I work with a digital piano. I have a pair of p.a. speakers (8" woofer, 1" driver, portable speakers) wich are very convenient in terms of portability, ease of use and power, and they sound pretty well in band gigs. But sometimes I get solo piano ("cocktail/lounge") gigs and then its very difficult to get an appropiate "lush" or "mellow" sound to that kind of gig, instead they sound a little bit harsh, dry and very treble-punchy, even if I cut some high in the eq it still sounds very bright. Once, in my home, I placed some foam in the 1" driver and it mellowed the sound pretty well, but it didnt looked very professional... So maybe you people can recommend me some more decent DIY way of altering the speakers, or maybe tell me about some other speakers (preferably in a similar price range) that you think could make the job better? In that case I may sell them and add a little more cash to get new ones, but first let me hear your ideas :D Pd: pease have in mind most of my gigs are at bars, restaurants, pubs, and alike... Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
