Let me preface this with the fact that the bar owner turned the left speaker to face a wall instead of the bar because it was too loud for him sometimes.

We have a Yamaha MG82cx and at our halloween gig, I went over by the left speaker and the voice was overpowering the music although the balance's were set to center.

Could this be a problem with the speaker itself? It is an old Ross speaker. I have a hard time believing it may be the mixer.

Thanks,

Kevin

If it was the vocals overpowering it would seem that there is something possibly wrong with the mixer outputs (although probably not if you were getting full volume on vocals), dirty pots/fader shorting out one channel on the music, possibly a bad cord on the music between the player & mixer. Check all connections, reverse the cords on the music right to left & vice verse. Check all pots & faders on the mixer channel - again could have a dirty section that is preventing the signal going to the main output.

I'll give that a try, thanks.

I'm assuming the speaker is a 2-way (woofer + horn). It could be a problem with the speaker's internal crossover network that perhaps the woofer isn't getting the full power it should. I think more likely is that there's a connection issue somewhere as Lon described.

I'll be back at the bar tomorrow night so I will play with it. It's a pain the way he moved it. I can really only hear the right side from where I'm at so I have to keep walking over to it after making an adjustment.

It is a two-way which did have a connection problem a few weeks ago. The jack was loose but I took it down and fixed that problem.

Well it must have been a loose connection last week because this week it was fine.

Thanks for your help!
