Of course, getting the monitors to sound nice without any feedback is great, but those settings are only for the current set up.
Another job in another venue will no doubt be different, but if the OP (original poster) is having unreasonable feedback, the process I described WILL get the monitors to a point that they can produce decent monitoring, instead of nothing but feedback.
Any device that has feedback suppression is never capable of producing results equal to a human that is educated and has the experience of making things NOT feedback but still sound pleasing to the ears.

When all else fails, turn the monitors down.
