I guess we will just have to agree to disagree on this just like how many bands of EQ one should really need to properly mix a show.
But I am glad to hear that maybe with some new speakers you are tackling the real issue in that gym so perhaps you don't need EQ city to get proper gain before feedback.
There is certainly much less eq required in this rig. I also don't have to push it to the max to get what I want. It's coasting through. The real test will be layer this year though.
I'll stick on one point. Even high end commercial gear does not have the same kind of HF response this rig does. The ribbon planars in these boxes are heavy duty versions of ribbons used in studio monitors (4x power handling and 6db more sensitive with no hit to frequency response). Compression drivers, even great ones. just can't do it. I've been in those rigs too... This design just sounds better.
