I am guessing that you don't have a treated control room.
It sounds like the problem is based around your monitoring/acoustics  
if your mixes do not translate.

Dealing with the original hardware- LA2a is great on vocals, bass and  
snare.
1176's are great on drums, drum busses, bass, guitar.
I love chaining two 1176's together with different ratios- just  
gorgeous on snare.
I've never used an LA2a on a bus.
