Another FAQ:
Q: "I'm thinking about getting an Aural Exciter (or similar product). What do you all think?"
A1: "Don't bother. They all suck. Spend the money on another microphone."
A2: "Never use these things across the main outputs. They might be useful as on an individual channel insert. But you're better off spending the money on another microphone."

Another excellent thread on setting limiters for the power capacity of the speakers, including the math for working it out from both amplifier power or fixed gain amps:
http://srforums.prosoundweb.com/index.php/m/218674/23615/0// /17922/#msg_218674
This was listed on a thread about bi-amping. Bunches of newbs have asked about setting limiter thresholds and there is usually a response about either setting to prevent amp clipping (which technique is described in the study hall although largely obviated by built in soft-clipping limiters built into modern amps) or a comment about setting it to protect the speakers, but with no guidance about how to do that. Thank you Ryan Jenkins for this very clear response.
