Going the extra distance and getting the Dynamic Trio may be worth it so that you have some additional flexibility. I treat mine like a microphone and cut the bass significantly as it was reinforcing the LB6's bass response and it was pretty boomy and prone to feedback. I think having the option to dial between their UST and the 54 would be much more dependable than the 54 alone.



For what it's worth, I'd consider getting the 54 again if I had the UST with it. For my current rig, I'm going to replace the 54 with an internal mic as it'll complement the LB6 a little better. The output levels between the two were too severe to depend on. But, you never know unless you try.

Thank you! If I were to use the #54 in a single source installation, would there be a lack of bass?
