We just played our first gig and used three Behringers as a backline
.. stereo for drums, guitar and vocals, and the other mainly for bass.

Then we had two PA speakers on stands to bring out the vocals mainly.

We were playing in a barn.

People said we had a great sound, but I didn't engineer it so I don't
know much more than that. I know the Behringers weren't over half
volume. What I don't know is how much sound the audience were getting
from the Behringers, and how much from the PA speakers.

No idea if that helps, but it's all I know :-)

Cheers
