I set up the H4n on a small light stand (2 feet high) at a 45-degree angle to some floor speakers for this past weekend's wedding reception. I'll let you know how they sounded in a day or two.

We've had our 7D's overheat at every wedding so far, and we're considering switching to 5D's. We're going to try the cold packs first, and see how it goes.
