There's a lot to be said for running subwoofers off of aux sends rather than the main mix, if you have enough aux's, and have enough separate outs to the mixer.
At the very least, having the vocal mikes completely out the subs can clean up a lot of stage rumble and muddiness, and acoustic and electric guitars, too. Kick, toms and bass guitar (or synth bass), to be honest, most of the time, that's the only things that NEED anything 120Hz and down...
Obviously, this is a lot harder with arrangers, but full bands can clear up their sound quite a bit by keeping everything out that doesn't need low low's
