Sound System Setup: Why Subwoofer Crossover Alignment is Critical

www.sounddesignlive.com: I worked on a reggae festival 12 years ago where I fell asleep at the console and destroyed some subwoofers. I fell asleep because I just wasn’t prepared for such a long day and didn’t have anyone to take over for me. I’m still not completely clear on how the subs were destroyed, but I think it was a combination of improper limiter settings and over driving them on accident because I was mixing from a power valley and some issues with the crossover alignment.
