Well, we have gone through this every year, and not much we can do about this.
Well, there are four speakers in our house. two side and a center cluster of two. When the auditorium was built, these speaker where in front of the stage, the stage used to have a flat front and end at the proscenium arch with stairs at either end. But since then it was remolded, before I got here, and now it has a nicer, curved front and horizontal stairs, but, now the front of the stage is in front of the center cluster. So during the production season where more then one or two mics are needed we need to disconnect the center cluster because it just makes a big loop and gets horrible feedback. The floor mics will pickup sound, go through cluster and go right back to the floor mics since the speakers are pretty much pointing at them. And it is even worse with the wireless mics.
The only solution I can see if get a new speaker set and move the cluster forward, or move the sides forward, almost to the stage, and get two new speakers and have them in middle.
Also doesnt help one of the tweaters in one of the cluster speakers is blown and we have a mono system. :/
