That's a nice compressor. You could always look into using a digital crossover at some point as well. You should be fine as long as you don't crank it, and watch the subsonic frequencies. Also, make sure your generator can handle at least a 1.8 kw load.

The driverack PA has crossover and delay functions....that will work well for you....does that one have a look-ahead setting for the limiter? Negative attack times on limiters are very handy.

to be honest It's been a long time I'd have to check the manual matter of fact I'm looking on the website now for it.

I think it's under the delay settings?

this is from the pdf manual

The DriveRack® PA offers alignment delay to use for compensating signal delay that occurs due
to internal speaker components such as horns, speakers and subwoofers within speaker cabinets.
The alignment delay is also ideal to compensate for the difference in high and low frequency
speed.

The parameters for the alignment delay are as follows and are user adjustable:

Delay On/Off
Turns the Speaker Alignment delay on and off.

Units - Seconds, Feet or Meters

Selects the unit of measurement for the delay.

Length
Sets the amount of Speaker Alignment delay time. Delay times include: Seconds- 0.00-10.00 ms,
Feet- 0.00-11.3 and Meters - 0.00-3.43. Fine adjustments are made in 20uS increments. Coarse
adjustments are made in 21uS increments.

If I read your spec right it has a max of 11.3 feet...not quite the 50 or so feet....i'm not sure what good a delay position would do at only 11.3 feet back from the T-zero position. It sounds like that is a box delay meant for aligning speaker components.

Yeah I think that's what it is as well.
