[QUOTE="Mason Joy, post: 215194, member: 14748"] If only sound engineering was simple... c'est la vie! Yes, this is why I'm asking for advice. I'd estimate that about 90% of the time, this will be my home setup for rehearsal, recording and sometimes my home theater (yes, I know these speakers are far from ideal for a home theater, but I have other monitor speakers that are great for that already, and are the ones I'll use for mixing). I'll haul them outside maybe 3-6x/year MAX for live shows, generally mid to small venue (~50-300 people) but they'll mostly be used as monitors for rehearsal/recording. This room (~30' x 13' x 12' ceiling) is a soundproofed room, roughly 64STC, which is really good for singing and acoustic performances, but nowhere near what I would need to actually blare these.
