I tried the contour buttons in both positions, neither position came across as well as the Titans. Not having a manual to hand I assumed that they were like the old loudness buttons on amps of days gone by and should be left off when wotking at a decent volume.

To be honest I was disappointed with the sound of both systems, the Mackie seemed pretty much unworkable whereas the Titan seemed bass light and treble heavy. The treble heavy could be tamed by EQ though.

I suspect we'll need to look further and see what other options are available. Budget is probably around 12-1500 pounds. Realistically I don't really see a need for subwoofers, but the extra versatility of a system that has reasonable bass capability would be good. Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

Thanks,

Grant.
