.. also seems like rule of thumb (though not sure what book this came from) would be to have your subs up one size from your mains (I share this feeling with some on this forum as well) ... eg if you have 15" subs, it's better to have 10" mains; if you have 18" subs, it's better to have 15" mains ... etc.

I think we are narrowing down the search to ...

2 Yamaha DSR112's

2 FBT ProMax 15aSa (these come highly recommended)

Frank, doc-z, Dikki, Leezone, DNJ and UD - your experience has really been very helpful and your suggestions are well taken. The QSC HPR and K-subs have been sold. Now back to the drawing board to hopefully get 'better' that what we had ...without breaking the bank!

Actual crowd size at next event is actually 420 (per ticket sales)
