Thank you all for your responses. I got them made up and running.

My setup consists of the following:
2 T30's Delta 12LFA loaded
2 Behringer eurolive 2015's
Behringer XENYZ 1002B mixer
Drive Rack Pro PX.
Crown XTI 1002 Tops
Behringer EP2500 Subs
I have the subs x at 40hz-100 and the tops from 100hz on up.

Is this setup sound about right?

Also, I have read the section on the limiter, but I am confused on how to limit voltage. Do I set that during the Pink noise part of the setup wizard that sez raise volume to performance level?

Should I post this question in a new post?

Thanks again,

Oscar

Disconnect cabs from amps. Run 60 hz, measure volts coming from sub amp when desk is at unity (no more can come out of desk). Adjust limiter to bring voltage down to the limit for the Delta12LFA.

For the tops, one can usually hear the distortion.

Thanks for the reply Tom,

Not sure what you mean by "unity". Do you mean mixer channel and master at full volume, past 0db scale?
What should the voltage be. 40V?

Thanks

At least 0db on fader (and buss) and output.

For the Delta 12LF, 35v.
