No question that, left to itself, the SA just goes muddy.
Solution, RedEye preamp. As the room fills up, I increase the the "High EQ" knob and it cuts right through. At the night this picture was taken, I asked the people right in front of me if I was too loud. "No you're fine". Then I asked the people on the opposite wall if they could hear me. "Yeah, you sound great".
Extraordinarily small footprint, well distributed sound (not just louder), excellent tone, and, best of all, KISS. I'm not sure what else one could want.

P.S. I have yet to encounter a situation either indoors or out that my SA was not equal to. |
Every time I see this picture, I think of the only gig I've ever done. I was only background music which is what this pic looks like to me. (I don't mean that in a bad way, this is only one glimpse in time so I could be wrong.) When I asked folks how the sound was, they all said "It sounds great!" It didn't sound great and I knew it. They simply didn't care or were happy that I wasn't too loud so they could continue their conversations.
That certainly doesn't mean that you didn't sound great and you have far more experience than I. I'm just sharing that in my experience, it wasn't that I sounded good, it was that I wasn't annoying. It was 'Good Enough.'
