A pet peeve of mine but when people say something like this then unless they are referencing everything offered previously I wish they would identify what advice they are referencing, otherwise people may assume they are referencing everything.There is a lot of really bad advnice here...
You probably mean sonically rather than acoustically. Different consoles definitely have different sonic characteristics but what actually matters is how much of a factor those characteristics may or may not be in actual use. For example, when one considers the wiring, signal processing, speaker system, acoustical environment and especially the operation related with many school, worship, club, etc. sound systems, the sonic differences between various mixer preamps is probably not much of a factor in the overall result. Just one of those cases where you may need to maintain a 'big picture' perspective as well as considering the details.The M7 is not a very good sound console acoustically (it sounds worse than the LS9) however it's very common.
Just a caveat to look at how the linking works and how that relates to the envisioned use. For example, is it a matter of a submix on one console to the other or of actually linking them? Will presets/scenes work across the consoles or would recall be independent for each? Are aux sends and subgroups commmon or independent? If the console has multichannel USB or FireWire recording and you are using that will it support the linking? Linking or submixing can be a very effective option for many applications but rarely is it directly equivalent to creating a single larger console, so you may havee to consider the differences and if they matter in your application..Go with two digital boards, linked one to the other
