What are the effects of overdamping?

This morning I took 4 OT12's and 2 T48's to a larger church near me and ran sound for a special event they had. Their multipurpose room, aka, the "Celebration Center" was setup for about 800. I'd guess about 90Dx180Wx40H plus a 60'x25ft deep 3.5' tall stage. This makes me happy. Mine will...

While were at it, has anyone used the auto-align feature with good results? Won't work on mine.

I went to a show tonight with an Ashly FET-500, Peavy and QSC amps, 2 dual 18 yammy cabs, and dual 15 and CD tops. Why this seems louder and better than my rig, I can only guess... I blame it on shoddy workmanship or something. More boom and sizzle? Sounds like you might prefer a little more harmon...

It's versatile and fairly straightforward to use. Give it a shot if it has everything you need. I don't think there's anything else in its price range that can do what it does.

I ended up with a DCX2496 after returning the Carvin. I like it better overall. You can buy two for the price of the Carvin.

I tried one a few months ago. There were some glitches in the software which were annoying. This was v1.0. They may have solved the issues by now.

The guys at diyaudio are multiple times over. I'm having trouble seeing what the big deal is. They don't look particulary complicated. Do they not have tradeoffs just like any other design? Is it a trend or a true improvement in audio reproduction?

350@8ohms for small gigs and 2000+ for everything else.

Nice and loud.

I tried both bi-amp(125 Hz) and with a passive crossover(150Hz).

Is there a big difference in sound quality between passive and active?

It would be interesting to hear the results with an un-castrated O10.
