Good Evening ...
Hello,
I am seeking advice regarding optimal setup of my rig, consisting of the following
Pionner DDJ SX2 Controller: https://www.pioneerdj.com/en/product...lack/overview/
Soundcraft Signature 10 External Mixer1 https://www.soundcraft.com/en/products/signature-10
Mackie 402VLZ4 External Mixer2: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/det...-channel-mixer
CerwinVega P1800SX Subwoofer: http://www.cerwinvega.com/pro-audio/...s/p1800sx.html
Yamaha DXR15 Speakers: https://www.musiciansfriend.com/pro-...active-speaker
Note: There are two mixers: the Soundcraft is the version I've been using, but like the compactness of the Mackie I just received as a gift.
Here is my current setup:

It involves connecting the main out (from the controller) to the input on the external mixer (e.g., the Mackie). Then the output from the mixer to the inputs on the sub. And then using the thru outputs from the subs to the speakers.
The crossover setting on both the tops and the subs will allow me to separate the high and low frequencies: The Yamaha tops have built in crossover set at 100Hz, but the sub has a built on crossover set at 80Hz. Engaging it (the sub crossover) will send all frequencies above 80Hz to the tops and those below (80Hz) to the sub. The top (full range speakers) crossover will be turned off since the sub has presumably separated the low/high frequencies..... am I correct in this assumption or should I go ahead and engage the 100Hz crossover for the tops ?
I just have a feeling this is a rather long connection, and the sound output sometimes is not loud enough. So I am open to other suggestions to optimize my setup.
Thanks - Oyiwa
