Two questions that folks on this group might have good answers for. The
context is that I'm upgrading the sound system for an old church. Budget is
minimal; so, thankfully, are expectations.

Questions:

Is there currently *any* sound system?

Who needs to hear the piano mic? The pianist, the band, the
congregation?

What could be done entirely on stage? Monitors can often be
set and forget, sort of. Could everybody live with a monitor
system located on stage? And no live adjustment possible?

If the problem is with the rest of the band hearing the piano
(yeah, I know, never really happens) is there an acoustical
solution practical? Moving people around, reflective wall, etc.

Good fortune. Sounds like you've got your work cut out for ya.
But that's what it's all about.
