They are very good but if its a festival i would suggest using a digital desk. preferably a Digico SD7 or D5 live.

also look at D&B and Adamson for line arrays.

I might recommend http://www.ampli.com/sw915.htm for some portable equipment to spec... might work for security or small venues at a festival
