[QUOTE="Mike Caldwell, post: 214858, member: 170"] Could be many things. How is the system configured? What are you powering the main speakers with? Are you using some form of a high pass filter/crossover on the main speakers, about a 100hz, you can do that in the X32. How are the subs fed from the system? I just looked those up and it looks like they have a built in 140hz crossover. with that I would low pass the subs around 90hz. How is the system Eq'd? Too much EQ can suck the life out of a system, do not boost a bunch of frequencies on the main EQ that make the system just turn into a dull roar with no clarity, cut what sounds bad, not boost. If everything else is in decent shape look at the mix itself. That's a small room, do you have a full band playing on stage? If so and the stage volume is too loud you need to get that under control. The X32 has lots of features making for lots of ways to get a good mix and sound or looking at it another way lots of features to over use resulting in not such great sound. Maybe look bringing a true sound person that knows what there doing to help you go through the system and get what you have working the best that it can be. The mounting of the B1520's is concerning, Chris had a good point on the horns though, Maybe post a picture or two of the room. [/QUOTE]
