I been using a Boss Compact, just got a Yamaha 82cx mixer. Now I'm pretty happy with the sound. I've been using this set up with good results for small venues/ medium low sound volume.

I got some outdoor gigs coming up in a parking lot. I don't think a Compact will cut it. Not sure how much a second one would help or not?

I'm thinking maybe getting a pair of powered speakers and use the Compact as a stage monitor.

Or maybe a second Compact would get the job done?

Any thoughts?
