Scott, Donny A, B'd The Mackies with your EV model...He had no choice but to buy the better sounding, more powerful 450's..

Scott I checked the bass response data..the 360 goes down to 60hz..Hardly enough to suit me..Even your model goes down to 50hz..Still not low enough..

Scott it looks like Donny may follow your footsteps...He thinks the Mackies are too powerful..Have you tried the 360 EV...He is looking for suggestions..

Donny, just get two Barbetta 31Cs. They are plenty powerful and sound BETTER than the 32Cs.
Light-weight, small, versatile, almost perfect.

I do have the EV SXA360s, and they sound full, punchy and they are tighter in the sound compared to the SRM 450's which I have also owned.

I've been using the 450's for the last 10 gigs in different variations.......it took a while to get the T2 sound I wanted by making some personal EQ & internal adjustments which are critical to make the T2 sound the way I want on stage.....Yes they are super powerful speakers, with a great Searing sounds all across the dance floor thru 200 people, I can see a clear difference from my old SRM 350's of which I needed a Powered Sub to get some more bottom end on big jobs but not with these baby's & now Im very happy with the sound after last nights peformance which really proved what the Mackie SRM450's are all about & capable of sounding like in STEREO with a T2!!!

I'm in the process of trying out some small systems for my little jobs also.....right now Im just using my Yamaha MS50's w/Sub which all fits nice into a small Protege` traveler luggage tote suitcase w/ handle I got at Walmart for $24.99
For now its ok, but I'll always be looking for the perfect solution for MY needs!
